TorchServe script references S3 bucket without ensuring ownership or confirming accessibility

In the latest version of pytorch/serve, the script 'upload_results_to_s3.sh' references the S3 bucket 'benchmarkai-metrics-prod' without ensuring its ownership or confirming its accessibility. This could lead to potential security vulnerabilities or unauthorized access to the bucket if it is not properly secured or claimed by the appropriate entity. The issue may result in data breaches, exposure of proprietary information, or unauthorized modifications to stored data.

TorchServe vulnerable to bypass of allowed_urls configuration

TorchServe's check on allowed_urls configuration can be by-passed if the URL contains characters such as ".." but it does not prevent the model from being downloaded into the model store. Once a file is downloaded, it can be referenced without providing a URL the second time, which effectively bypasses the allowed_urls security check. Customers using PyTorch inference Deep Learning Containers (DLC) through Amazon SageMaker and EKS are not affected.

TorchServe gRPC Port Exposure

The two gRPC ports 7070 and 7071, are not bound to localhost by default, so when TorchServe is launched, these two interfaces are bound to all interfaces. Customers using PyTorch inference Deep Learning Containers (DLC) through Amazon SageMaker and EKS are not affected.

TorchServe ZipSlip

Impact Using the model/workflow management API, there is a chance of uploading potentially harmful archives that contain files that are extracted to any location on the filesystem that is within the process permissions. Leveraging this issue could aid third-party actors in hiding harmful code in open-source/public models, which can be downloaded from the internet, and take advantage of machines running Torchserve. Patches The ZipSlip issue in TorchServe has been fixed …

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

TorchServe is a tool for serving and scaling PyTorch models in production. TorchServe default configuration lacks proper input validation, enabling third parties to invoke remote HTTP download requests and write files to the disk. This issue could be taken advantage of to compromise the integrity of the system and sensitive data. This issue is present in versions 0.1.0 to 0.8.1. A user is able to load the model of their …
