CVE-2026-49121

AI Tensor Engine for ROCm (AITER) through 0.1.14 contains an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the MessageQueue.recv() function within shm_broadcast.py that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a malicious pickle payload to a ZMQ SUB socket with no authentication, HMAC, or format validation. Attackers who can reach the writer XPUB endpoint on the cluster network or supply a forged Handle with an attacker-controlled remote_subscribe_addr can deliver a crafted pickle payload that executes arbitrary code simultaneously as the inference worker process on every remote reader worker.
