AI-suggested
Until an official fix is released, users should avoid loading untrusted .keras models or TensorFlow SavedModels. Monitor vendor advisories, especially from keras-team and Red Hat, for updates on patches or mitigations.
Description
A vulnerability in the `TFSMLayer` class of the `keras` package, version 3.13.0, allows attacker-controlled TensorFlow SavedModels to be loaded during deserialization of `.keras` models, even when `safe_mode=True`. This bypasses the security guarantees of `safe_mode` and enables arbitrary attacker-controlled code execution during model inference under the victim's privileges. The issue arises due to the unconditional loading of external SavedModels, serialization of attacker-controlled file paths, and the lack of validation in the `from_config()` method.
