CVE-2026-25129: PsySH has Local Privilege Escalation via CWD .psysh.php auto-load

PsySH automatically loads and executes a .psysh.php file from the Current Working Directory (CWD) on startup. If an attacker can write to a directory that a victim later uses as their CWD when launching PsySH, the attacker can trigger arbitrary code execution in the victim’s context. When the victim runs PsySH with elevated privileges (e.g., root), this results in local privilege escalation.
