GHSA-9gh8-9r95-3fc3: MobSF Vulnerable to Arbitrary File Write (AR-Slip) via Absolute Path in .a Extraction

### Summary The vulnerability allows any user to overwrite any files available under the account privileges of the running process. ### Details As part of static analysis, iOS MobSF supports loading and parsing statically linked libraries `.a`. When parsing such archives, the code extracts the embedded objects to the file system in the working directory of the analysis. The problem is that the current implementation does not prohibit absolute file names inside `.a`. If an archive item has a name like /abs/path/to/file, the resulting path is constructed as Path(dst) /name; for absolute paths, this leads to a complete substitution of the destination directory: writing occurs directly to the specified absolute directory. the path (outside the working directory). Thus, an authenticated user who uploaded a specially prepared `.a`, can write arbitrary files to any directory writable by the user of the MobSF process (for example, `/tmp`, neighboring directories inside `~/.MobSF`, etc.).
