CVE-2025-14929

Hugging Face Transformers X-CLIP Checkpoint Conversion Deserialization of Untrusted Data Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Hugging Face Transformers. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of checkpoints. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28308.

Summary		(es) Vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código (RCE) por deserialización de datos no confiables en la conversión de checkpoints X-CLIP de Hugging Face Transformers. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de Hugging Face Transformers. Se requiere interacción del usuario para explotar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso.\n\nEl fallo específico existe dentro del análisis de checkpoints. El problema resulta de la falta de validación adecuada de los datos suministrados por el usuario, lo que puede provocar deserialización de datos no confiables. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual. Fue ZDI-CAN-28308.
