Machine-written summary

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

The uniget CLI (gitlab.com/uniget-org/cli) is vulnerable in versions before 0.27.6 because hook filenames are joined without removing "../" sequences, allowing path traversal outside the hooks directory. The source describes an attacker being able to read and modify arbitrary files, but it does not state what access level or user interaction is required. Upgrade to version 0.27.6 or later.
