Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
plexus-utils versions before 3.0.24 are vulnerable to directory traversal, which lets crafted file paths using ../ sequences or absolute paths reach files outside the intended folder. The source gives few details on what an attacker must supply. Upgrade to plexus-utils 3.0.24 or later.
