CVE-2026-55244: asteval has a Sandbox Escape via BaseException Subclasses

An attacker who can supply expressions to asteval.Interpreter.eval() can raise SystemExit, KeyboardInterrupt, GeneratorExit, or BaseException from inside the sandbox. These exceptions are subclasses of BaseException but not Exception, so they bypass the except Exception: safety net in both run() and eval(). The exception propagates verbatim to the calling application, terminating the process or disrupting signal and cleanup handlers.

This is distinct from prior vulnerabilities CVE-2025-24359 (format string injection) and GHSA-vp47-9734-prjw (AST mutation TOCTOU), both fixed in 1.0.6. This vector is present in all versions including 1.0.6 and current HEAD.
