Zed, a code editor, has a symlink escape vulnerability in versions prior to 0.225.9 in Agent file tools (read_file, edit_file). It allows reading and writing files outside the project directory when a project contains symbolic links pointing to external paths. This bypasses the intended workspace boundary and privacy protections (file_scan_exclusions, private_files), potentially leaking sensitive user data to the LLM. Version 0.225.9 fixes the issue.
