Description

CVE-2026-100308 is a vulnerability in Amazon GluonTS, an open source library for deep learning based time series models, that allows arbitrary command execution during deserialization of untrusted model artifacts. Versions of GluonTS before 0.17.0 are affected. The vulnerability occurs when calling Predictor.deserialize() or RepresentablePredictor.deserialize() on a model directory that is not fully controlled by the user. This can lead to execution of arbitrary operating system commands with the privileges of the loading process. The issue has been fixed in version 0.17.0. Users are advised to upgrade to this version and only deserialize trusted model artifacts.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-100308 is an arbitrary command execution vulnerability in Amazon GluonTS before version 0.17.0. It arises from unsafe deserialization of untrusted model artifacts in the model loading component. Specifically, when Predictor.deserialize() or RepresentablePredictor.deserialize() is called on a crafted serialized model directory not fully controlled by the user, attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands with the privileges of the loading process. This vulnerability is resolved in GluonTS 0.17.0. Users should upgrade to this version and avoid deserializing untrusted model data.

Potential Impact

An attacker who can supply a crafted serialized model directory to the deserialization functions can execute arbitrary operating system commands with the privileges of the process performing the deserialization. This can lead to full compromise of the system or environment running the vulnerable GluonTS version if the attacker controls the model directory. The impact depends on the privilege level of the loading process.

Mitigation Recommendations

This vulnerability is fixed in GluonTS version 0.17.0. Users should upgrade to version 0.17.0 or later to remediate the issue. Additionally, users should only deserialize model artifacts from trusted sources to avoid exploitation. No other workarounds are recommended.
