Description
Improper neutralization of quoting syntax in SQL identifier construction in the Apache Iceberg write component in AWS SDK for pandas (also published as awswrangler) 3.5.2 through 3.17.0 might allow an authenticated remote user with permission to modify AWS Glue Data Catalog metadata to read any table that a separate, more privileged principal can access and write to the table that principal is updating via a crafted column name.
To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 3.17.1 or later.
