Rembg: Unauthenticated SAM model injection permits local-file disclosure through malicious ONNX graphs

The public /api/remove endpoint uses attacker-controlled extras.sam_model in both SAM filenames and GitHub download URLs. Path traversal plus a URL fragment lets an unauthenticated attacker place malicious ONNX models beside a target file. The models read the file as ONNX external data and encode its bytes into the returned PNG. This issue affects SAM's sam_model in 2.0.81 and returns complete file contents. Screenshot 1 — First unauthenticated request primes the …

Rembg has a Path Traversal via Custom Model Loading

A path traversal vulnerability in the rembg HTTP server allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files from the server's filesystem. By sending a crafted request with a malicious model_path parameter, an attacker can force the server to attempt loading any file as an ONNX model, revealing file existence, permissions, and potentially file contents through error messages. CWE IDs: CWE-22 (Path Traversal), CWE-73 (External Control of File Name or Path)

Rembg CORS misconfiguration

Rembg is a tool to remove images background. In Rembg 2.0.57 and earlier, the CORS middleware is setup incorrectly. All origins are reflected, which allows any website to send cross site requests to the rembg server and thus query any API. Even if authentication were to be enabled, allow_credentials is set to True, which would allow any website to send authenticated cross site requests.

Rembg allows SSRF via /api/remove

Rembg is a tool to remove images background. In Rembg 2.0.57 and earlier, the /api/remove endpoint takes a URL query parameter that allows an image to be fetched, processed and returned. An attacker may be able to query this endpoint to view pictures hosted on the internal network of the rembg server. This issue may lead to Information Disclosure.
