Affected: pytorch, Red Hat OpenShift AI 2.25, Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI)
PyTorch is a Python package that provides tensor computation. Prior to version 2.10.0, a vulnerability in PyTorch's `weights_only` unpickler allows an attacker to craft a malicious checkpoint file (`.pth`) that, when loaded with `torch.load(..., weights_only=True)`, can corrupt memory and potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. Version 2.10.0 fixes the issue.
Affected: PyPI: pytorch
### Summary
A vulnerability in PyTorch's `weights_only` unpickler allows an attacker to craft a malicious checkpoint file (`.pth`) that, when loaded with `torch.load(..., weights_only=True)`, can corrupt memory and potentially lead to arbitrary code execution.
### Vulnerability Details
The `weights_only=True` unpickler failed to properly validate pickle opcodes and storage metadata, allowing:
1. **Heap memory corr…
