CVE-2026-31218
Description
AI Translation Available
The _load_model() function in the neural_magic_training.py script of the optimate project in commit a6d302f912b481c94370811af6b11402f51d377f (2024-07-21) is vulnerable to insecure deserialization (CWE-502). When loading a model state dictionary from a state_dict.pt file via torch.load(), the function does not enable the weights_only=True security parameter. This allows the deserialization of arbitrary Python objects through the Pickle module. A remote attacker can exploit this by providing a maliciously crafted state_dict.pt file within a directory specified via the --model argument, leading to arbitrary code execution during the deserialization process on the victim's system.
