Upgrade Kiro CLI to version 2.27.0 or later, where the file permission issue has been corrected. No other mitigation steps are indicated in the advisory.

Description

Kiro CLI versions from 1.16.0 up to but not including 2.27.0 on macOS and Linux have incorrect default file permissions for session transcripts and prompt history. This misconfiguration allows other local users on the same host to read these files, potentially exposing sensitive information such as credentials or source code.
