NVD description

Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. In versions below 0.2.111, a path validation flaw using prefix matching instead of canonical path comparison, makes it possible to bypass directory restrictions and access files outside the CWD. Successful exploitation depends on the presence of (or ability to create) a directory with the same prefix as the CWD and the ability to add untrusted content into a Claude Code context window. This is fixed in version 0.2.111.

    @OneManSaas @forloopcodes https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-54794 Still not fixed and for that matter not fixable. The use case of "Claude summarize this document from the Internet for me" is just not a feasible one.
