CVE-2026-15679

Hugging Face PyTorch Image Models checkpoint Deserialization of Untrusted Data Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Hugging Face PyTorch Image Models. 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-27987.

Summary		(es) Vulnerabilidad de Ejecución Remota de Código por Deserialización de Datos No Confiables en puntos de control de Hugging Face PyTorch Image Models. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de Hugging Face PyTorch Image Models. Se requiere interacción del usuario para explotar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso. La falla específica existe dentro del análisis de puntos de control. El problema resulta de la falta de validación adecuada de los datos proporcionados por el usuario, lo que puede resultar en la deserialización de datos no confiables. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual. Fue ZDI-CAN-27987.
