There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Hugging Face Transformers versions up to 4.49.0 are affected by an improper input validation vulnerability
in the `image_utils.py` file. The vulnerability arises from insecure URL validation using the
`startswith()` method, which can be bypassed through URL username injection. This allows attackers to
craft URLs that appear to be from YouTube but resolve to malicious domains, potentially leading to
phishing attacks, malware distribution, or data exfiltration. The issue is fixed in version 4.52.1.
