I was having same issue then realized that the version of commons-io getting picked up was lower than what I need (2.4)....I need to Override the already managed version as below to get the right one picked up:

<dependency>
     <groupId>commons-io</groupId>
     <artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
     <version>2.4</version>
 </dependency>
