Version 3.2.1 has a CVSS 10.0 vulnerability. That's the worst kind of
vulnerability that exists. By merely existing on the classpath, this
library causes the Java serialization parser for the entire JVM process
to go from being a state machine to a turing machine. A turing machine
with an exec() function!

My employer (Google) is unwilling to sign the CLA as is. I have started a conversation between our lawyers, and your lawyers. I'll ping this thread when a agreement has been decided.
