Reviewer's Guide by Sourcery

This PR upgrades the Werkzeug dependency from 2.2.3 to 3.0.6 to address two medium-severity security vulnerabilities: a Directory Traversal vulnerability and an Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling issue. The change explicitly adds Werkzeug as a dependency in requirements.txt, which was previously an implicit dependency through Flask.

No diagrams generated as the changes look simple and do not need a visual representation.

Micro-Learning Topic: Directory traversal (Detected by phrase)

Matched on "Directory Traversal"

What is this? (2min video)

Path traversal vulnerabilities occur when inputs that have not been sufficiently validated or sanitised are used to build directory or file paths. If an attacker can influence the path being accessed by the server, they may be able to gain unauthorised access to files or even execute arbitrary code on the server (when coupled with file upload functionality).
