NLTK from 3.10.0 before 3.10.4 contains a symlink escape vulnerability in YCOECorpusReader that allows attackers to read files outside the corpus root by planting psd or pos directory symlinks. Attackers controlling a YCOE corpus can make parsed_sents() and tagged_words() return file content from other corpora or temporary files within the NLTK data sandbox.
