AVID-2026-R1454

Description

Insecure Deserialization Leading to RCE in bentoml/bentoml (CVE-2024-2912)

Details

An insecure deserialization vulnerability exists in the BentoML framework, allowing remote code execution (RCE) by sending a specially crafted POST request. By exploiting this vulnerability, attackers can execute arbitrary commands on the server hosting the BentoML application. The vulnerability is triggered when a serialized object, crafted to execute OS commands upon deserialization, is sent to any valid BentoML endpoint. This issue poses a significant security risk, enabling attackers to compromise the server and potentially gain unauthorized access or control.

Reason for inclusion in AVID: CVE-2024-2912 describes an insecure deserialization vulnerability in BentoML (bentoml/bentoml) that enables remote code execution via AI model-serving infrastructure. BentoML is a framework/library used to build, deploy, and serve AI models, making this vulnerability directly relevant to AI software stacks and their supply chain. The issue is a software vulnerability in a dependency/tooling used in AI deployment pipelines, not a hardware/firmware issue. The description provides explicit security impact (RCE) and CVSS signals, supporting its classification as a security vulnerability in AI software supply chain.
