NewCVE-2025-23042 (opens in a new tab)Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) are common identifiers for publicly known security vulnerabilities
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) is a category system for software weaknesses
How to fix?
Upgrade gradio to version 5.11.0 or higher.
Overview
gradio is a Python library for easily interacting with trained machine learning models
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity due to improper case normalization in the file path validation logic through the blocked_paths parameter of the is_allowed_file function. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive files by altering the letter case of a blocked file or directory path.
Note:
This is only exploitable on case-insensitive file systems, such as Windows and macOS.
