## Affected packages

- `io.github.robothy:local-s3-rest` (Maven): affected `<1.21`; fixed in `1.21`

## Machine-written summary

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

> LocalS3 (Maven io.github.robothy:local-s3-rest) versions before 1.21 are vulnerable to XML external entity injection through the bucket tagging API. An unauthenticated attacker who can send requests to the service can define external entities in the tagging XML and read arbitrary files the application can access on the server. Upgrade to version 1.21, which contains a fix.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-v232-254c-m6p7>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
