Machine-written summary

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

PraisonAI versions before 4.6.78 (PyPI package praisonai) let ContextGatherer read files outside the configured workspace, because include entries in project-controlled .praisoncontext and .praisoninclude files can be absolute paths or ".." traversal paths. An attacker who can supply or modify a workspace repository and get context gathering run on it can expose process-readable files outside the project root, which are then added to the context bundle. Upgrade to praisonai 4.6.78 or later, which fixes the issue.
