## Description

A vulnerability in the `download\_model` function of the onnx/onnx
framework, before and including version 1.16.1, allows for arbitrary file
overwrite due to inadequate prevention of path traversal attacks in
malicious tar files. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to
overwrite files in the user's directory, potentially leading to remote
command execution.
