CVE-2026-45804: Diffusers: TOCTOU Trust Remote Code Bypass
(updated )
The vulnerability is a silent RCE - it allows arbitrary code to be loaded through the custom pipeline flow from a Hub repo, with no custom_pipeline or trust_remote_code kwargs. The from_pretrained call succeeds and returns a fully functional pipeline.
