How to fix?

Upgrade Chainguard mlflow to version 3.8.1-r3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mlflow package and not the mlflow package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability exists in google.protobuf.json_format.ParseDict() in Python, where the max_recursion_depth limit can be bypassed when parsing nested google.protobuf.Any messages.

Due to missing recursion depth accounting inside the internal Any-handling logic, an attacker can supply deeply nested Any structures that bypass the intended recursion limit, eventually exhausting Python’s recursion stack and causing a RecursionError.
