      Currently, if a file, such as an image file, is uploaded to a Confluence page, the apache commons-fileupload process spins off tmp files in the <confluence-home>/temp directory. As part of this process, the file names for these files will include a randomly generated alphanumeric unique key. Unfortunately, this has no tie back to the actual page that the file was uploaded to.

      As such, if one of these uploaded files is flagged by anti-virus software as having a virus, then it's very difficult to trace where in the Confluence content this file exists.

      This request is to record the page ID or content ID of the page receiving the file in the tmp file's file name so that an administrator can then inspect the page to see if the infected file is present.
