**Vulnerability** `PreparedStatement.setText(int, InputStream)` and `PreparedStatemet.setBytea(int, InputStream)` will create a temporary file if the InputStream is larger than 2k Example of vulnerable code: ``` String s = new String("some very large string greater than 2048 bytes) PreparedStatement.setText(1, s); ``` This will create a temporary file which is readable by other users on Unix like systems, but not MacOS. Impact On Unix like systems, the system's temporary directory is shared between all users on that system. Because of this, when files and directories are written into this directory they are, by default, readable by other users on that same system. This vulnerability does not allow other users to overwrite the contents of these directories or files. This is purely an information disclosure vulnerability. When analyzing the impact of this vulnerability, here are the important questions to ask: Is the driver running in an environment where the OS has other unt...
