Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Apache Livy (livy-server, Maven) versions from 0.3.0-incubating before 0.9.0-incubating are affected by a path traversal flaw that allows unauthorized directory access. The source says it can only be exploited when the livy.file.local-dir-whitelist setting has been changed from its default, and it does not describe what an attacker can read or do beyond bypassing the directory check. Upgrade to 0.9.0-incubating, which fixes the issue.
