CVE-2023-40170

This issue has been addressed in commit 87a49272728 which has been included in release 2.7.2. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may use the lower performance --ContentsManager.files_handler_class=jupyter_server.files.handlers.FilesHandler, which implements the correct checks.
