GHSA-8MGP-746C-J5XP NLTK: Model-artifact APIs bypass pathsec and touch files outside allowed roots

Summary Several model-artifact APIs still treat caller-controlled model paths as ordinary filenames even when NLTK path security is enforced. The same outside-root paths are rejected by guarded helpers, but these public read and write flows still use raw file APIs. Details - Vulnerability type:...

CVE-2026-63312

A flaw was found in NLTK. This vulnerability, specifically within the StreamBackedCorpusView component, allows an attacker to bypass security enforcement by directly calling builtins.open instead of the intended pathsec.open. By controlling the fileid argument, an attacker can read arbitrary loca...

CVE-2026-81726

NLTK through 3.10.3 contains a path traversal vulnerability in model-artifact APIs that bypass pathsec enforcement by using raw file operations on caller-controlled paths. Attackers can read or write files outside allowed sandbox roots through TransitionParser, AveragedPerceptron, PerceptronTagge...

CVE-2026-81726

NLTK through 3.10.3 contains a path traversal vulnerability in its model-artifact APIs. The root cause is that TransitionParser, AveragedPerceptron, PerceptronTagger, and maxent parameter APIs bypass pathsec enforcement by performing raw file operations on caller-controlled paths, allowing attack...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-81726

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - NLTK through 3.10.3 contains a path traversal vulnerability in model-artifact APIs that bypass pathsec enforcement by using raw file operations on...

PT-2026-82621

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions NLTK versions prior to 3.10.4 Description Path traversal occurs in model-artifact APIs when pathsec is enabled. The issue arises from the use of raw file operations on caller-controlled paths, which allows bypassing pathsec enforcement. This...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-79674

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - NLTK versions before 3.10.3 contain a path sandbox bypass vulnerability in corpus-reader constructors that allows attackers to read files outside the intended...

CVE-2026-79674

NLTK versions before 3.10.3 contain a path sandbox bypass vulnerability in corpus-reader constructors that allows attackers to read files outside the intended data root. Attackers can supply arbitrary corpus root paths to LinThesaurusCorpusReader and PanLexLiteCorpusReader constructors to access...

EUVD-2026-65526

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...

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 via the gettag method in nltk/corpus/reader/ipipan.py, which is the single choke point for channels, domains, categories, a...

CVE-2026-63312

NLTK before 3.10.0 contains an arbitrary local file read vulnerability in StreamBackedCorpusView that bypasses pathsec.ENFORCE by calling builtins.open directly instead of pathsec.open. Attackers who control the fileid argument can read arbitrary local files regardless of the ENFORCE setting,...

CVE-2026-62383

nltk versions before 3.10.2 contain a symlink-based arbitrary file read vulnerability in IPIPANCorpusReader methods that bypass nltk.pathsec validation entirely. Attackers can place a symlink in the corpus root directory and read arbitrary files accessible to the process by calling channels,...
