details: "Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In versions\
  \ 2.17.0 and earlier, a path traversal vulnerability in the REST API allows an authenticated\
  \ user to escape the configured root_dir and access sibling directories whose names\
  \ begin with the same prefix as the root_dir. For example, with a root_dir named\
  \ \"test\", the API permits access to a sibling directory named \"testtest\" through\
  \ a crafted request to the /api/contents endpoint using encoded path components.\
  \ An attacker can read, write, and delete files in affected sibling directories.\
  \ Multi-tenant deployments using predictable naming schemes are particularly at\
  \ risk, as a user with a directory named \"user1\" could access directories for\
  \ user10 through user19 and beyond. A user who can choose a single-character folder\
  \ name could gain access to a significant number of sibling directories. \n\nVersion\
  \ 2.18.0 contains a fix. As a workaround, ensure folder names do not share a common\
  \ prefix with any sibling directory."
