CVE-2024-6838

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in mlflow/mlflow

Published Mar 20, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

In mlflow/mlflow version v2.13.2, a vulnerability exists that allows the creation or renaming of an experiment with a large number of integers in its name due to the lack of a limit on the experiment name. This can cause the MLflow UI panel to become unresponsive, leading to a potential denial of service. Additionally, there is no character limit in the `artifact_location` parameter while creating the experiment.
