Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in MLeap. Affected by this issue is the function FileUtil.extract of the component Tensorflow Model Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

FileUtil.extract() enumerates all zip file entries and extracts each file without validating whether file paths in the archive are outside the intended directory. When creating an instance of TensorflowModel using the saved_model format and an exported tensorflow model, the apply() function invokes the vulnerable implementation of FileUtil.extract(). Arbitrary file creation can directly lead to code execution

The weakness was shared 11/15/2023. The advisory is shared for download at github.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2023-5245 since 09/28/2023. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1006.
