CVE-2025-45146

ModelCache for LLM through v0.2.0 was discovered to contain an deserialization vulnerability via the component /manager/data_manager.py. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via supplying crafted data.

Weakness

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

Affected Software

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.
