Summary
DeepGraphLearning KnowledgeGraphEmbedding up to 2e440e0f9c687314d5ff67ead68ce985dc446e3a is affected. The override_config function in codes/run.py does not limit the data_path argument to an intended directory, which is a path traversal flaw (CWE-22). A remote attacker needs no privileges but depends on passive user interaction to trigger it. A public exploit has been published.
