Attack profile from CVSS 4.0 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-94.
Summary
ModelTC LightX2V up to 0.5.0 is affected. Manipulating the auto_map argument of AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained in the Tokenizer component causes code injection (CWE-94). An attacker with local access and low privileges can inject code, and no user interaction is needed. A public exploit is linked in the references.

Description from the CNA
A weakness has been identified in ModelTC LightX2V up to 0.5.0. Affected is the function AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained of the file lightx2v/models/runners/cosmos3/cosmos3_runner.py of the component Tokenizer. This manipulation of the argument auto_map causes code injection. The attack is restricted to local execution. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
