Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The software.amazon.awssdk:cloudfront package, versions 2.18.33 through 2.41.29, does not properly handle special characters such as double quotes and backslashes in input passed to its CloudFront signing utilities. If an application passes unsanitized input to these utilities, the generated signed URL or cookie policy may not reflect the intended access restrictions. Upgrade to version 2.41.30. The source advises validating input in application code before passing it to these utilities.
