Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions due to improper handling of the SAME_AS_SOURCE path validation in the Downloads component. An attacker can bypass Mark of the Web security protections by crafting an HTML page that triggers a download where the target file path is the same as the source file path, causing the download to proceed without proper cancellation and creating a download loop that bypasses security checks.
