 {{{
 49.1
 ====
 * Fixed issue that could allow remoate access to local files
 * Updated translations:
 }}}

 This contains a fix for
 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/yelp/-/work_items/238 - which allows for
 remote data exfiltration via malicious help files. Additional details in
 https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2026/05/11/flatpak-sandbox-escape-via-
 yelp/ - and unfortunately no CVE has been assigned still a month later.
 The mention of Flatpak here doesn't mean much since non-sandboxed
 applications can abuse this to retrieve data anyway through the same
 attack vector utilizing the OpenURI portal. This is a repeat of
 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/yelp/-/work_items/221
