Machine-written summary

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

Versions of praisonaiagents before 1.6.58 let a caller-supplied user_id in FileMemory traverse out of the memory directory, so JSON memory files can be written to any location the process can write to. An attacker who can set user_id, directly through the Python API or indirectly through an Agent memory dict, agents.yaml, or the jobs API, can overwrite files or plant new ones outside the intended base path. Upgrade to praisonaiagents 1.6.58, which fixes the issue; the source gives no other workaround.
