Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2019-02-12 06:30:22 UTC
The Debian python-rdflib-tools 4.2.2-1 package for RDFLib 4.2.2 has CLI tools
that can load Python modules from the current working directory, allowing code
injection, because "python -m" looks in this directory, as demonstrated by
rdf2dot. This issue is specific to use of the debian/scripts directory.
