Perhaps a silly question, but what is the criteria for TooGenericExceptionCaught? It's flagging this as being too generic, but IndexOutOfBoundsException seems pretty appropriate.

The rule TooGenericExceptionCaught reports all exceptions of the following types being caught in a catch clause.

['ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException', 'Error', 'Exception', 'IllegalMonitorStateException', 'IndexOutOfBoundsException', 'NullPointerException', 'RuntimeException', 'Throwable']

You can find more about the rule here:

Perhaps, you could check whether the index is within the collection bounds, so you don't need to catch the IndexOutOfBoundsException.

Gotcha.

Can't believe I missed the documentation; I was searching primarily GitHub issues under the assumption that it was a bug.
