Fix for bucket_path security vulnerability
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is a fix for Bugs #13553, #13418, #13511. The bucket_path parameter
allowed control over where the filebucket will try to read and write to.
The only place available to stop this parameter is in the resolution
from a URI to an indirectory terminus. The bucket_path is used
internally for local filebuckets and so cannot be removed completely
without a larger change to the design.
