Description

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

- ZenML version 0.83.1 is affected by a path traversal vulnerability in the `PathMaterializer` class. The
`load` function uses `is_path_within_directory` to validate files during `data.tar.gz` extraction, which
