Microsoft APM is an open-source, community-driven dependency manager for AI agents. Prior to 0.13.0, Microsoft APM contains a Windows-specific archive extraction boundary failure in the legacy-bundle probe used by apm install <bundle> on supported Python 3.10 and 3.11 runtimes. When apm install is given a local .tar.gz that is not recognized as a plugin-format bundle, APM probes whether it is a legacy --format apm bundle. On Python versions earlier than 3.12, that probe extracts untrusted tar members with raw tar.extractall() without rejecting Windows absolute member names such as D:/.... This vulnerability is fixed in 0.13.0.

Microsoft APM is an open-source, community-driven dependency manager for AI agents. From 0.5.4 to 0.12.4, two primitive integrators in apm-cli enumerate package files with bare Path.glob() / Path.rglob() calls and read each match with Path.read_text(), transparently following symbolic links. A symlink committed inside a remote APM dependency under .apm/prompts/<x>.prompt.md or .apm/agents/<x>.agent.md is preserved verbatim into apm_modules/ on clone and then dereferenced during integration, with the resolved content written as a regular file into the project's deploy directories. The package content_hash, the pre-deploy SecurityGate scan, and apm audit do not flag this. The deploy roots are not added to the auto-generated .gitignore, so the resulting files are staged by git add by default. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.13.0.

Microsoft APM is an open-source, community-driven dependency manager for AI agents. Prior to 0.8.12, Microsoft APM normalizes marketplace plugins by copying plugin components referenced in plugin.json into .apm/. The manifest fields agents, skills, commands, and hooks are attacker-controlled, but the implementation does not enforce that those paths remain inside the plugin directory. A malicious plugin can therefore use absolute paths or ../ traversal paths to copy arbitrary readable host files or directories from the installer's machine during apm install. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.12.
