CVE-2020-8570: kubernetes-client: Path Traversal bug in the Java kubernetes client

Severity: Critical

CVSS Score: 7.5

Kubernetes Java client libraries in version 10.0.0 and versions prior to 9.0.1 allow writes to paths outside of the current directory when copying multiple files from a remote pod which sends a maliciously crafted archive. This can potentially overwrite any files on the system of the process executing the client code.
