Machine-written summary

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

OpenRefine's PreviewExpressionCommand, which evaluates expressions, is vulnerable in versions before 3.8.3 because it lacks CSRF protection. An attacker who knows a valid project ID in the victim's workspace and convinces the victim to open a malicious web page can cause arbitrary Clojure or Python code to run with the victim's privileges. Upgrade to version 3.8.3 or later.
