Doc Text:
A flaw was found in jupyter-server. This path traversal vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of file paths, specifically an incorrect root directory boundary check and improper handling of directory traversal sequences. This allows a remote attacker with low privileges to bypass directory restrictions and gain unauthorized read and write access to files in sibling directories. This could lead to the exposure of sensitive data, particularly in shared hosting environments.
