There is no fixed version for com.netflix.hollow:hollow.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Privilege Escalation. In Netflix OSS Hollow, since the Files.exists(parent) is run before creating the directories, an attacker can pre-create these directories with wide permissions. Additionally, since an insecure source of randomness is used, the file names to be created can be deterministically calculated.
