NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kubeflow-pipelines-visualization-server package and not the kubeflow-pipelines-visualization-server package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

A sensitive data leakage vulnerability was identified in scikit-learn's TfidfVectorizer, specifically in versions up to and including 1.4.1.post1, which was fixed in version 1.5.0. The vulnerability arises from the unexpected storage of all tokens present in the training data within the stop_words_ attribute, rather than only storing the subset of tokens required for the TF-IDF technique to function. This behavior leads to the potential leakage of sensitive information, as the stop_words_ attribute could contain tokens that were meant to be discarded and not stored, such as passwords or keys. The impact of this vulnerability varies based on the nature of the data being processed by the vectorizer.
