The vulnerability exists because path validation is lexical and does not account for symlink resolution, enabling attackers to place symlinks inside the corpus root to access files outside the intended boundary.",

An attacker who can place \u2014 or who convinces a site author to place \u2014 a symlink inside a mounted directory (for example, in a locally vendored theme under themes/) can cause functions that perform direct lookups, such as resources.Get and os.ReadFile, to follow that symlink and read files outside the intended project boundaries, disclosing their contents in the built site. Themes mounted as Go modules fetched from GitHub have symlinks stripped on download and are not affected, and multi-directory walks (e.g. content/asset walking) are not affected. This issue is an incomplete-fix follow-up to GHSA-c3wq-j5vh-68rc and GHSA-fw87-fv5r-9fpw; it is fixed in v0.165.0.",

The same outside-root paths are rejected by guarded helpers, but these public read and write flows still use raw file APIs.\n\n### Details\n\n- **Vulnerability type:** File sandbox bypass\n- **Affected component:** `TransitionParser.train`, `TransitionParser.parse`, `AveragedPerceptron.save`, `AveragedPerceptron.load`, `PerceptronTagger.save_to_json`, `save_maxent_params`\n- **Affected versions:** Published `3.9.4` and current source `v3.10.0-rc2` both reproduced.\n- **Patched versions:** Not yet patched\n- **Root cause:** Model import and export helpers use built-in `open()` on caller-controlled paths instead of pathsec-aware helpers.\n\n`TransitionParser.train()` writes outside allowed roots, `TransitionParser.parse()` reads outside allowed roots, `AveragedPerceptron` bypasses the sandbox in both directions, and adjacent read-side helpers in the same family already show the intended guarded behavior. I confirmed outside-root reads and writes while `pathsec.open()` or the guarded sibling helpers rejected the same paths.\n\n### PoC\n\n**Preconditions**\n- The application enables `pathsec` enforcement and lets untrusted workflows choose model import or export paths.\n\n**Steps**\n1. Enable `pathsec.ENFORCE=True` and restrict allowed roots to a dedicated sandbox directory.\n2. Use public model import or export APIs with paths that point outside that root.\n3. Observe the same paths are rejected by negative-control guarded helpers such as `pathsec.open()`, `PerceptronTagger.load_from_json()`, or `load_maxent_params()`.\n4. Observe the vulnerable APIs still read or write outside-root files successfully.\n\n**Minimal reproducible excerpt**\n\n```text\ntransition_train_exists True\ntransition_parse_loader_read_bytes 13\naveraged_load_keys [\u0027bias\u0027]\nmaxent_save wrote [\u0027alwayson.tab\u0027, \u0027labels.txt\u0027]\n```\n\n### Impact\n\nConsumers that rely on `pathsec` for local containment can be tricked into reading or overwriting files outside approved roots through normal model persistence and loading APIs.\n\n### Remediation\n\nRoute all model-path file access through `nltk.pathsec.open()` or existing pathsec-aware helpers, and add regression tests that pair each vulnerable API with a negative control on the same path.",
