CVE-2025-15379
mlflow: MLflow: Arbitrary command execution via command injection in model serving container initialization.
Severity by source
Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by NVD, GHSA, Bitnami. Rated lower by Red Hat (high).
Description
A command injection vulnerability exists in MLflow's model serving container initialization code, specifically in the `_install_model_dependencies_to_env()` function. When deploying a model with `env_manager=LOCAL`, MLflow reads dependency specifications from the model artifact's `python_env.yaml` file and directly interpolates them into a shell command without sanitization. This allows an attacker to supply a malicious model artifact and achieve arbitrary command execution on systems that deploy the model. The vulnerability affects versions 3.8.0 and is fixed in version 3.8.2.
