Directory Traversal

Overview nltk is a Natural Language Toolkit NLTK is a Python package for natural language processing. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal through IPIPANCorpusReader, CrubadanCorpusReader, and LinThesaurusCorpusReader in nltk/corpus/reader/ipipan.py,...

PYSEC-2026-3737

NLTK versions before 3.10.3 contain a path traversal vulnerability in corpus readers that reopen root-derived paths using built-in open instead of nltk.pathsec.open, allowing symlinks to escape trusted roots. Attackers who stage symlinked corpus files under a trusted data root can disclose...

PYSEC-2026-3749

NLTK before 3.10.3 fails to validate JVM options passed through the per-call options parameter in the java function, allowing attackers to inject dangerous JVM flags. Attackers can supply malicious options like -agentpath, -javaagent, or @argfile to Stanford wrapper classes to achieve arbitrary...

CVE-2026-79676

NLTK versions before 3.10.3 are affected by a path traversal vulnerability in its corpus readers. The root cause is that these readers reopen root-derived paths using the built-in open() instead of nltk.pathsec.open(), which fails to resolve symlinks confined to a trusted root. An attacker who ca...
