Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- WW-4620 added autoGrowCollectionLimit to XWorkListPropertyAccessor, but it only handles setProperty() and
not getProperty(). This could lead to OOM if developer has set CreateIfNull to true for the underlying
