Show the technical text from the sources

answer-me-with-html through 0.5.0 contains a link following vulnerability in the am CLI code block src= embedding, where localPath() checks only path text without resolving symlinks. Attackers can ship a repository with a symlink pointing outside the checkout so am render embeds readable external files into generated HTML, disclosing them when shared.
