New Hugging Face Vulnerability Exposes AI Models to Supply Chain Attacks

Cybersecurity researchers have found that it's possible to compromise the Hugging Face Safetensors conversion service to ultimately hijack the models submitted by users and result in supply chain attacks. "It's possible to send malicious pull requests with attacker-controlled data from the Hugging Face service to any repository on the platform, as well as hijack any models that are submitted

Warning: PyTorch Models Vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via ShellTorch

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed multiple critical security flaws in the TorchServe tool for serving and scaling PyTorch models that could be chained to achieve remote code execution on affected systems. Israel-based runtime application security company Oligo, which made the discovery, has coined the vulnerabilities ShellTorch. "These vulnerabilities [...] can lead to a full chain Remote

PyTorch Machine Learning Framework Compromised with Malicious Dependency

The maintainers of the PyTorch package have warned users who have installed the nightly builds of the library between December 25, 2022, and December 30, 2022, to uninstall and download the latest versions following a dependency confusion attack. "PyTorch-nightly Linux packages installed via pip during that time installed a dependency, torchtriton, which was compromised on the Python Package

PyTorch: Machine Learning toolkit pwned from Christmas to New Year

The bad news: the crooks have your SSH private keys. The good news: only users of the "nightly" build were affected.
