Upgrade gradio
to version 4.19.2 or higher.
Overview
gradio is a Python library for easily interacting with trained machine learning models
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Timing Attack due to the way string comparisons are handled, allowing them to terminate early upon finding a mismatch. This behavior can be exploited by an attacker to conduct a brute-force attack to guess the password of password-protected applications by making numerous attempts without being rate-limited.
