RCE in Hiyouga Llama-Factory

CVE-2026-58116

LLaMA-Factory through 0.9.5 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows attackers with WebUI access to execute arbitrary Python code by supplying a malicious model path in the Chat or Training interfaces. The application passes user-supplied model path input unvalidated into AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained() and AutoModel.from_pretrained() with a hardcoded trust_remote_code=True parameter, causing the Hugging Face transformers library to fetch and execute arbitrary code from a remote or local model repository with the privileges of the server process.
