REDHAT-BUG-2447690: Command Injection
A command injection vulnerability exists in mlflow/mlflow versions before v3.7.0, specifically in the mlflow/sagemaker/init.py file at lines 161-167. The vulnerability arises from the direct interpolation of user-supplied container image names into shell commands without proper sanitization, which are then executed using os.system(). This allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by supplying malicious input through the --container parameter of the CLI. The issue affects environments where MLflow is used, including development setups, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud deployments.

Upgrade
mlflow/mlflowto a version that resolves this vulnerability.Fixed in v3.7.0 - Configuration
Restrict the value passed to the MLflow CLI --container parameter to trusted/sanitized container image names so it cannot inject shell metacharacters into the underlying command execution.
MLflow CLI --container parameter input handling = Use only trusted, sanitized container image names (no shell metacharacters)
