What

Plugins can play audio and can write files and resolve ancestor directories from a hook. Audio playback is refused for anything that is not a loaded plugin, and ancestor path resolution is guarded so a plugin cannot walk outside the project.

Evidence

audio.play: not a loaded plugin

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
