Arbitrary file write via dataset path traversal
Published Feb 6, 2024 · Updated May 15, 2025
Path traversal in Allegro AI ClearML client SDK 1.4.0 through 1.14.1 allows remote attackers to write files via a crafted dataset. The Datasets._download_external_files method accepts an attacker-controlled external link and destination path without confining the write to an intended directory. A user must interact with the shared dataset, such as by invoking Dataset.squash; file:// links can also relocate sensitive local files into exposed directories.
