Frequently Asked Questions

1

What must an attacker provide or influence to exploit this issue?

The attacker needs to cause the application to load a crafted serialized model directory. Exploitation occurs during model deserialization and can execute operating system commands with the privileges of the process performing the load.

2

Who is exposed to the highest risk?

Applications that load model directories from untrusted or attacker-influenced sources are exposed. The impact is determined by the permissions of the process that loads the model, because commands run with those same privileges.

3

What should be done if an immediate upgrade is not possible?

Do not deserialize model directories from untrusted or attacker-controlled sources. Restrict who can supply, modify, or select model directories loaded by the application until upgrading to version 0.17.0 or later.

4

Which versions contain the fix?

Upgrade Amazon GluonTS to version 0.17.0 or later. The issue affects versions before 0.17.0.
