Quick fix
PYSEC-2026-128 — pyload-ng: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
pip install --upgrade 'pyload-ng>=0.5.0b3.dev100'Details
pyLoad is a free and open-source download manager written in Python. Prior to 0.5.0b3.dev100, package folder names are sanitized using insufficient string replacement. The pattern ....// becomes .._ after replacement (partial removal), leaving .. which can be exploited when the path is later resolved by the OS. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.5.0b3.dev100.
