CVE-2024-1728
Local File Inclusion in gradio-app/gradio
gradio-app/gradio is vulnerable to a local file inclusion vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied input in the UploadButton component. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary files on the filesystem, such as private SSH keys, by manipulating the file path in the request to the /queue/join endpoint. This issue could potentially lead to remote code execution. The vulnerability is present in the handling of file upload paths, allowing attackers to redirect file uploads to unintended locations on the server.

GitHub AdvisoriesGHSA-m842-4qm8-7gpq
Gradio allows users to access arbitrary files
Impact
This vulnerability allows users of Gradio applications that have a public link (such as on Hugging Face Spaces) to access files on the machine hosting the Gradio application. This involves intercepting and modifying the network requests made by the Gradio app to the server.
Patches
Yes, the problem has been patched in Gradio version 4.19.2 or higher. We have no knowledge of this exploit being used against users of Gradio applications, but we encourage all users to upgrade to Gradio 4.19.2 or higher.
