Summary

CVE-2023-48299 is a vulnerability affecting TorchServe, a tool used for serving and scaling PyTorch models in production. Prior to version 0.9.0, this software had a ZipSlip issue that allowed for harmful archives to be uploaded via the model/workflow management API. These archives, if extracted, could be saved to any location within the process permissions. This vulnerability posed a risk for third parties to hide malicious code in open-source models, which could be downloaded from the internet and exploited on machines running TorchServe. The issue has since been resolved in TorchServe version 0.9.0, with the implementation of file path validation for zipped archives before extraction.
