CVE-2024-3568
LOW3.4EPSS 24.4%Transformers Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability
Published: 4/10/2024Modified: 4/10/2024
Also known as:GHSA-37q5-v5qm-c9v8
Description
The huggingface/transformers library is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution through deserialization of untrusted data within the `load_repo_checkpoint()` function of the `TFPreTrainedModel()` class. Attackers can execute arbitrary code and commands by crafting a malicious serialized payload, exploiting the use of `pickle.load()` on data from potentially untrusted sources. This vulnerability allows for remote code execution (RCE) by deceiving victims into loading a seemingly harmless checkpoint during a normal training process, thereby enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code on the targeted machine.
