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.
