Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Spring Boot (spring-boot-autoconfigure) versions 4.0.0 to before 4.0.7, 3.5.0 to before 3.5.15, and earlier 2.7.x through 3.4.x releases are affected. When no data directory is configured for the embedded Artemis message broker, Spring Boot uses a fixed, predictable path. A local attacker on the same host who pre-creates that directory or places a symlink there before the application starts can interfere with the broker's data. Upgrade to 4.0.7 or 3.5.15, or set an explicit Artemis data directory path.
