Summary
nbconvert has an Arbitrary File Read via Path Traversal in HTMLExporter Image Embedding
Details

The nbconvert tool, jupyter nbconvert, converts Jupyter notebooks to various other formats via Jinja templates. In versions 6.5 through 7.17.0, when HTMLExporter.embed_images=True, nbconvert's markdown renderer allows arbitrary file read via path traversal in image references. A malicious notebook can exfiltrate sensitive files from the conversion host by embedding them as base64 data URIs in the output HTML. nbconvert 7.17.1 contains a fix. As a workaround, do not enable HTMLExporter.embed_images; it is not enabled by default.
