pdm is a Python package and dependency manager supporting the latest PEP standards. Versions prior to 2.27.0 are vulnerable to path traversal through writetofs. InstallDestination.writetofs() in src/pdm/installers/installers.py overrides the base class to add symlink/hardlink support but replaces the safe pathwithdestdir() (which validates via Path.resolve() + isrelative_to()) with a bare os.path.join() that performs no path validation. A malicious wheel with traversal entries can write arbitrary files. This issue has been fixed in version 2.27.0.
