Exploited in the last 30 days

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to praisonaiagents 1.6.58, ast_grep_rewrite lacks the @require_approval decorator used by sibling mutation tools. With dry_run=False, an agent-controlled call can pass --update-all and a broad path to rewrite matching files without the expected authorization gate. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.58.
