Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

NanoClaw before 2.1.17 contains a symlink following vulnerability in forwardAttachedFiles that allows container-controlled agents to exfiltrate host-readable files. The host validates attachment filenames using only isSafeAttachmentName before copying with fs.copyFileSync, which follows symlinks without containment checks, allowing malicious agents to disclose arbitrary host files.
