Upgrade mlflow to version 2.17.0rc0 or higher.
Overview
mlflow is a platform to streamline machine learning development, including tracking experiments, packaging code into reproducible runs, and sharing and deploying models.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Relative Path Traversal in the _validate_non_local_source_contains_relative_paths() function. An application is vulnerable when the dbfs service is configured and mounted to a local directory rather than Databricks. An attacker can read arbitrary files by manipulating the URL used in the file: protocol, which fails to properly sanitize input beyond the path, such as query and parameters.
