Machine-written summary

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

Versions of org.geoserver:gs-platform and org.geoserver:gs-restconfig before 2.23.4, and from 2.24.0 before 2.24.1, are affected by an arbitrary file upload flaw in the REST Coverage Store API. An authenticated administrator with permission to modify coverage stores can write arbitrary file contents to arbitrary locations, which can lead to remote code execution. Upgrade to 2.23.4 or 2.24.1, or later versions in the affected branch.
