CVE-2024-10190
March 20, 2025
Horovod versions up to and including v0.28.1 are vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of base64-encoded data in the "ElasticRendezvousHandler", a subclass of "KVStoreHandler". Specifically, the "_put_value" method in "ElasticRendezvousHandler" calls "codec.loads_base64(value)", which eventually invokes "cloudpickle.loads(decoded)". This allows an attacker to send a malicious pickle object via a PUT request, leading to arbitrary code execution on the server.
