Technical details
The ExternalFilesDownloader.getFilename() method extracts the destination filename directly from HTTP Content-Disposition response headers and passes it to Path.resolve() without sanitization, allowing directory traversal sequences (../) or absolute paths. An attacker running a malicious HTTP server that the Goobi viewer fetches from can exploit this to write files to arbitrary writable locations. When targeting the deployed web-application directory, this yields remote code execution as the tomcat OS user.
