Summary
datamodel-code-generator generates Python data models from schema definitions. Prior to 0.60.1, GraphQL Union description values in src/datamodel_code_generator/model/template/UnionTypeStatement.jinja2 and src/datamodel_code_generator/model/template/UnionTypeStatement.py312.jinja2 are rendered into Python comments without neutralizing carriage returns in Python # comments, allowing attacker-controlled GraphQL schema content to inject Python code into generated models that runs when imported. This issue is fixed in version 0.60.1.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
The maintainers of datamodel-code-generator/datamodel-code-generator published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
