+  Detects CVE-2026-43899 / GHSA-cp8j-jx7q-7r5f (CRITICAL): incomplete fix of
+  CVE-2025-55733 in ThinkInAIXYZ/deepchat (< 1.0.4-beta.1). The native Electron
+  window handler in src/main/presenter/tabPresenter.ts calls shell.openExternal(url)
+  inside setWindowOpenHandler() without the ALLOWED_PROTOCOLS check that exists in
+  the renderer preload, so a Markdown link rendered with target="_blank" reaches
+  the OS protocol handler unsanitised. A poisoned LLM API response (e.g. from a
+  custom /v1/chat/completions endpoint) returns Markdown such as
+  "[click here](calculator://)" or "[open](smb://attacker/share)" to launch
+  arbitrary protocol handlers (calculator://, smb://, ms-msdt://, bash://,
+  file://) for host-level code execution and NTLM credential theft over SMB.

+  in PraisonAI < 1.5.113. FileTools._validate_path() calls os.path.normpath()
+  FIRST, collapsing '..' sequences, then checks `if '..' in normalized` — a check

+  /tmp/../etc/passwd to read_file / write_file / delete_file and reaches any file
+  on the host. This rule keys on the distinctive normpath-then-dotdot-check sink,

+description: >
+  CVE-2023-5832: mintplex-labs/anything-llm < 0.1.0 collector API exposes
+  POST /process which passes the request JSON 'filename' field straight into
+  process_single(WATCH_DIRECTORY, filename) without normalization. A filename
+  containing ../ directory-traversal sequences escapes the hotdir / WATCH_DIRECTORY
+  and lets a low-privilege user delete arbitrary files (e.g. ../../server/storage/anythingllm.db).
+  This rule keys on the /process + filename + ../ traversal triad and on traversal
+  payloads targeting anythingllm storage from the collector context.
