CVSS v3.1
9.8
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
scikit-learn (aka sklearn) versions through 0.23.0
Description
The issue allows unserialization and execution of commands from an untrusted file passed to the
joblib.load() function, if reduce makes an os.system call. It is noted that third parties dispute this issue, as the joblib.load() function is documented as unsafe, and it is the user's responsibility to use the function in a secure manner.Recommendations
For versions through 0.23.0, consider avoiding the use of the
joblib.load() function with untrusted files, as it can lead to command execution. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of the joblib.load() function to trusted files only, until a secure manner of using this function is ensured.Exploit
