Two conditions must be met to exploit this vulnerability
condition one is already fixed in CVE-2015-0899, so everything is fine
condition two can be fixed by the following patch:
https://github.com/kawasima/struts1-forever/commit/eda3a79907ed8fcb0387a0496d0cb14332f250e8
but as this completely deactivates multipart requests, this should not be generally applied
