Cracking ShellTorch Vulnerabilities Exposing TorchServe to RCE

A trio of security vulnerabilities, dubbed ‘ShellTorch,’ in the open-source machine-learning model TorchServe, a tool for serving and scaling PyTorch models, could be chained to achieve remote code execution on affected systems, potentially leading to server takeover. There are numerous instances of TorchServe found publicly exposed on the internet, comprising thousands, and among them are servers affiliated with some of the globe’s largest and most distinguished organizations.
