Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The banks package, versions before 2.5.1, is vulnerable in DirectoryPromptRegistry, where prompt files and the index.json file are not checked for symbolic links. An attacker who can place symlinks in a prompt directory, such as through an unpacked archive or a shared folder, could read arbitrary files outside the registry root or overwrite them when prompts are saved. Upgrade banks to version 2.5.1 or later.
