CVE-2026-1462
8.8
CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
A vulnerability in the TFSMLayer class of the keras package, version 3.13.0, allows attacker-controlled TensorFlow SavedModels to be loaded during deserialization of .keras models, even when safe_mode=True. This bypasses the security guarantees of safe_mode and enables arbitrary attacker-controlled code execution during model inference under the victim's privileges. The issue arises due to the unconditional loading of external SavedModels, serialization of attacker-controlled file paths, and the lack of validation in the from_config() method.
