CVE-2024-34072: Deserialization of Untrusted Data in sagemaker-python-sdk

Severity: high (CVSS 7.8 v3.1)
Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
EPSS: 0.4% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
Public exploit or detection template: none known
Published: 2024-05-03 · updated 2026-06-17
Weakness: CWE-502

Description

sagemaker-python-sdk is a library for training and deploying machine learning models on Amazon SageMaker. The sagemaker.base_deserializers.NumpyDeserializer module before v2.218.0 allows potentially unsafe deserialization when untrusted data is passed as pickled object arrays. This consequently may allow an unprivileged third party to cause remote code execution, denial of service, affecting both confidentiality and integrity. Users are advised to upgrade to version 2.218.0. Users unable to upgrade should not pass pickled numpy object arrays which originated from an untrusted source, or that could have been tampered with. Only pass pickled numpy object arrays from trusted sources.

Affected products

AWS Sagemaker-Python-Sdk: before 2.218.0 — fixed in 2.218.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: AWS Sagemaker-Python-Sdk 2.218.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
