Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to External Control of File Name or Path during schema parsing. Although loading untrusted classes is no longer vulnerable via this vector as of version 1.15.1, by default an attacker who can control a trusted class can execute arbitrary code by passing them in as ReflectData or SpecificData Parquet inputs to the schema parser.
Workaround
On version 1.15.1, this vulnerability can be avoided by setting the system property org.apache.parquet.avro.SERIALIZABLE_PACKAGES to an empty string.
