AI-suggested

A fixed version of MONAI is available starting from version 1.6.1. Users should upgrade to version 1.6.1 or later to remediate this vulnerability. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated in the available data.

Description

MONAI versions from 1.2.0 up to but not including 1.6.1 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the ConfigWorkflow.__init__ method. This vulnerability arises because the method passes a bundle's configs/logging.conf file to logging.config.fileConfig, which uses eval() on handler class and args fields. An attacker can exploit this by publishing a malicious bundle with a crafted logging.conf that executes arbitrary Python code when the victim loads or runs the bundle.
