Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer

CVE-2025-2148

Low
2.3/10

Summary

A vulnerability was found in PyTorch versions 1.6.0 and after. Affected by this vulnerability is the function "torch.ops.profiler._call_end_callbacks_on_jit_fut" of the component Tuple Handler. The manipulation of the argument None leads to memory corruption. The attack can be launched remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation appears to be difficult.

CWE-119 - Buffer Overflow

Buffer overflow attacks involve data transit and operations exceeding the restricted memory buffer, thereby corrupting or overwriting data in adjacent memory locations. Such overflow allows the attacker to run arbitrary code or manipulate the existing code to cause privilege escalation, data breach, denial of service, system crash and even complete system compromise. Given that languages such as C and C++ lack default safeguards against overwriting or accessing data in their memory, applications utilizing these languages are most susceptible to buffer overflows attacks.
