Machine-written summary

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

JupyterLab versions 3.3.0 up to 4.5.10 and 4.6.0 up to 4.6.2 are affected. A crafted overrides.json settings file, imported through the Settings Editor or placed in a settings directory that another user can write to, can run code in the context of the affected user, reaching their notebooks, files, and kernels. Upgrade to JupyterLab 4.5.10 or 4.6.2. No workarounds are listed, though restricting write access to shared settings directories reduces the risk.
