      <title>CVE-2026-81727 — NLTK before 3.10.3 Hardlink File Overwrite via downloader</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-81727</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; nltk&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;NLTK versions before 3.10.3 contain a filesystem containment bypass vulnerability in the Downloader.download and Downloader.incr_download methods that allows attackers to overwrite files outside the install root through pre-existing hardlinks. Attackers with write access to a shared downloader directory can create hardlinks pointing to outside-root files that are then overwritten during normal package extraction, mutating files outside the intended install tree.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
