Who is impacted?_\n\nAn Arbitrary File Write vulnerability has been identified in Microsoft\u0027s Semantic Kernel\u202f.NET SDK, specifically within the\u202f`SessionsPythonPlugin`.\nDevelopers who have built applications which include Microsoft\u0027s Semantic Kernel\u202f.NET SDK and are using the `SessionsPythonPlugin`.\n\n### Patches\n_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_\n\nThe problem has been fixed in [Microsoft.SemanticKernel.Core version 1.70.0](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.SemanticKernel.Core/1.70.0). Users should upgrade to version 1.70.0 or higher.\n\n### Workarounds\n_Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_\n\nUsers can create a [Function Invocation Filter](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/concepts/enterprise-readiness/filters?pivots=programming-language-csharp#function-invocation-filter) which checks the arguments being passed to any calls to `DownloadFileAsync\u202f` or `UploadFileAsync` and ensures the provided `localFilePath` is allow listed.\n\n### References\n_Are there any links users can visit to find out more?_\n- [Sample showing safe use of the CodeInterpreterPlugin](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/blob/main/dotnet/samples/Demos/CodeInterpreterPlugin/Program.cs#L61-L64)\n- [PR to Add file upload security controls to SessionsPythonPlugin](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/pull/13478/changes#diff-88d3cacba2bfa84eef8f2aa171b34f9940338cbb784a3ffc49f5fe3af1b8943d)",
