Affected packages

• PyPI bbot: >= 2.1.0, < 2.8.6 → fixed in 2.8.6

Description

The `postman_download` module uses the workspace `name` field from the Postman API to construct the local directory path without sanitization. If a malicious workspace has a name containing path traversal characters, pathlib resolves the path outside the intended output directory, allowing an attacker to write arbitrary files to the user's system.
