Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Amazon.Extensions.S3.Encryption versions before 3.2.0 are affected when encrypted data keys are stored in Instruction Files. An attacker who can create a rogue encrypted data key and upload a replacement Instruction File to the S3 bucket could cause the client to decrypt the object into attacker-chosen plaintext. Upgrade to version 3.2.0 or later; the source recommends version 4.0.0 or later for maximum safety.
