NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream automation-controller package and not the automation-controller package as distributed by RHEL.

pip would treat console_scripts and gui_scripts as paths instead of file names without sanitizing the resolved absolute path to the installation directory, leading to entry points being installed outside the installation directory.
