CVE-2024-30254 Directory traversal allowing overwriting arbitrary files

MesonLSP is an unofficial, unendorsed language server for meson written in C++. A vulnerability in versions prior to 4.1.4 allows overwriting arbitrary files if the attacker can make the victim either run the language server within a specific crafted project or mesonlsp --full. Version 4.1.4 contains a patch for this issue. As a workaround, avoid running mesonlsp --full and set the language server option others.neverDownloadAutomatically to true.
