Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote user to overwrite arbitrary files on the local filesystem.
The vulnerability exists due to path traversal in the camel-google-storage consumer when downloading Google Cloud Storage objects to the local filesystem using the downloadFileName option. A remote user can place or influence an object with a specially crafted name containing parent-directory segments to overwrite arbitrary files on the local filesystem.
The issue is limited to the consumer path that appends the remote object name to the configured destination, and no filtering is applied unless the filter option has been explicitly set.
