Description

The method BooleanUtils.toBoolean() has a case statement; case 3 drops through to case 4; this can cause StringIndexOutOfBoundsException, for example with the test:

assertEquals(false, BooleanUtils.toBoolean("tru"));

The end of case 3 should return false.

Patch to follow for source and unit test.
