Published Aug 18, 2025CWE-22EPSS 0.26%

Overview

CVE-2025-55201 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 18, 2025.

Technical description

Copier library and CLI app for rendering project templates. Prior to 9.9.1, a safe template can currently read and write arbitrary files because Copier exposes a few pathlib.Path objects in the Jinja context which have unconstrained I/O methods. This effectively renders the security model w.r.t. filesystem access useless. This vulnerability is fixed in 9.9.1.

Remediation
