Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
datamodel-code-generator versions 0.59.0 up to but not including 0.81.0 can write files outside the intended temporary directory when processing a Protobuf schema with malicious weak-import paths. An attacker who gets a user or CI job to process a crafted .proto file, supplied locally or via --url, can create files and directories where the process has write access and can overwrite existing writable files using relative traversal; written content is limited to a generated proto syntax line. Upgrade to datamodel-code-generator 0.81.0 or later.
