QID 984149: Python (pip) Security Update for sockeye (GHSA-ggmr-44cv-24pm)

Security update has been released for sockeye to fix the vulnerability. Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Sockeye uses YAML to store model and data configurations on disk. Versions below 2.3.24 use unsafe YAML loading, which can be made to execute arbitrary code embedded in config files. An attacker can add malicious code to the config file of a trained model and attempt to convince users to download and run it. If users run the model, the embedded code will run locally.

  • CVSS V3 rated as High - 7.8 severity.
  • CVSS V2 rated as High - 6.8 severity.
    • Solution
    The issue is fixed in version 2.3.24 and above by #964.
