Summary

Plandex 2.2.1 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the ApplyFiles function that allows attackers to write files outside the project directory. Attackers can influence model output through poisoned repository files or attacker-controlled context to write to arbitrary locations like shell rc or cron files, achieving code execution.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could write files to arbitrary system locations, potentially leading to code execution or system compromise.
