Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

GeoServer (org.geoserver:gs-restconfig) versions before 2.23.5, and 2.24.0 through 2.24.1, are affected. An authenticated administrator with permission to modify stores through the REST Coverage Store or Data Store API can rename arbitrary files and directories when using the external upload method, which will most likely cause a denial of service. Upgrade to version 2.23.5 or 2.24.2.
