CVE-2025-32434
In version 2.5.1 and prior, a Remote Command Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in PyTorch when loading a model using torch.load with weights_only=True.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.94%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
PyTorch is a Python package that provides tensor computation with strong GPU acceleration and deep neural networks built on a tape-based autograd system. In version 2.5.1 and prior, a Remote Command Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in PyTorch when loading a model using torch.load with weights_only=True. This issue has been patched in version 2.6.0.
