CVE-2024-1561
No affected components available
An issue was discovered in gradio-app/gradio, where the /component_server endpoint improperly allows the invocation of any method on a Component class with attacker-controlled arguments. Specifically, by exploiting the move_resource_to_block_cache() method of the Block class, an attacker can copy any file on the filesystem to a temporary directory and subsequently retrieve it. This vulnerability enables unauthorized local file read access, posing a significant risk especially when the application is exposed to the internet via launch(share=True), thereby allowing remote attackers to read files on the host machine. Furthermore, gradio apps hosted on huggingface.co are also affected, potentially leading to the exposure of sensitive information such as API keys and credentials stored in environment variables.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker does not need any special privileges or access rights. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information.
Exploitation activity has been observed. Apply available patches or mitigations urgently.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
