DescriptionCVE.org

An issue in ESA AnomalyMatch before 1.3.1 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted model checkpoint files. The affected components load model files from session directories using torch.load() with unrestricted deserialization.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary code execution in ESA AnomalyMatch before 1.3.1 allows local attackers with low privileges to run code under the application's process by planting a malicious PyTorch checkpoint into a session directory, which is loaded via torch.load() with weights_only=False. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the upstream fix (PR #9) and a third-party advisory (imlabs.info) confirm the unsafe-deserialization root cause and the migration to safetensors.

Technical ContextAI

AnomalyMatch is the European Space Agency's semi-supervised anomaly-detection toolkit built on PyTorch. The vulnerability is a classic CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data): SessionIOHandler.load_model and load_model_checkpoint invoked torch.load(load_path, weights_only=False) - and fell back to pickle.load() - on files inside the session checkpoints directory. Both torch.load (pre-2.6 default) and pickle.load execute arbitrary Python via __reduce__ during unpickling, so any attacker-controlled .pth or .pkl file becomes a code-execution primitive the moment a session is reopened. The upstream remediation replaces torch.save/torch.load with a new checkpoint_io module that uses HuggingFace safetensors (a tensor-only format with no executable payload) plus JSON-encoded metadata.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to ESA AnomalyMatch 1.3.1 or later, which replaces torch.save/torch.load and pickle.load with safetensors via the new anomaly_match/data_io/checkpoint_io module (see PR https://github.com/esa/AnomalyMatch/pull/9). Until the upgrade is applied, treat any pre-existing .pth or .pkl checkpoint as executable code: store session directories on per-user paths with restrictive POSIX permissions (chmod 700), never open sessions or checkpoints received from other users, collaborators, or public model repositories, and verify checksums against a known-good source before loading. If you must keep the unpatched version running, a stopgap is to patch the local load paths to call torch.load(..., weights_only=True) (PyTorch ≥2.0) or to refuse any checkpoint not matching an allowlisted SHA-256 - note that weights_only=True will break loading of legacy checkpoints that embedded non-tensor Python objects, so retraining or re-saving may be required.
