CVE-2024-9070

A deserialization vulnerability exists in BentoMLs runner server in bentoml/bentoml versions <=1.3.4.post1. By setting specific parameters, an attacker can execute unauthorized arbitrary code on the server, causing severe harm. The vulnerability is triggered when the args-number parameter is greater than 1, leading to automatic deserialization and arbitrary code execution.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Potential Mitigations

• Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
• An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
