Pypi · Nltk · CVE-2026-62385
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
NLTK versions prior to 3.10.0
**Description**
A path traversal issue exists in `FramenetCorpusReader` and `NKJPCorpusReader`. This allows attackers to parse XML files located outside the corpus root by providing unsafe selectors or a poisoned index state. The flaw can be exploited through the `frame by name()`, `doc()`, `lu()`, and `header()` methods using crafted parameters to read arbitrary XML files accessible to the application.
**Recommendations**
Update to version 3.10.0 or later.
