📋 Description

Impact

With a default configuration, an undefined readPaths/writePaths meant allow-all, the strictReadDefault flag was inert, and the .obsidian/.git/.trash control directories were denied only during enumeration — not on the direct request path. A caller could read .obsidian/plugins/*/data.json, exfiltrating plugin API keys and Obsidian Sync passwords (live-reproduced), as well as any other in-vault file by path.

Patches

Fixed in 1.3.1. Upgrade to >= 1.3.1. The default now denies .obsidian/.git/.trash on read/write/delete and honors strictReadDefault on the request path.

Workarounds

Set an explicit readPaths/writePaths whitelist that excludes the control directories.
