The Amazon SageMaker Python SDK before v3.2.0 and v2.256.0 includes the ModelBuilder HMAC signing key in the cleartext response elements of the DescribeTrainingJob function. A third party with permissions to both call this API and permissions to modify objects in the Training Jobs S3 output location may have the ability to upload arbitrary artifacts which are executed the next time the Training Job is invoked.
Weakness
The product transmits sensitive or security-critical data in cleartext in a communication channel that can be sniffed by unauthorized actors.
