Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Apache Commons VFS (org.apache.commons:commons-vfs2) versions before 2.10.0 are affected. When an FTP file is not found, the FtpFileObject class can include the original URI in its exception message, which may contain a password. Users should upgrade to commons-vfs2 2.10.0, which masks the password in the message.
