Details

NLTK versions before 3.10.0 contain a path traversal vulnerability in FramenetCorpusReader and NKJPCorpusReader that allows attackers to parse XML files outside the corpus root by supplying unsafe selectors or poisoned index state. Attackers can exploit framebyname, doc, lu, and header methods with crafted parameters to read arbitrary XML files accessible to the application.
