How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 python313-doc to version 3.13.13-160000.1.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python313-doc package and not the python313-doc package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

DISPUTED: The project has clarified that the documentation was incorrect, and that pkgutil.get_data() has the same security model as open(). The documentation has been updated to clarify this point. There is no vulnerability in the function if following the intended security model.

pkgutil.get_data() did not validate the resource argument as documented, allowing path traversals.
