Overview
nvidia-pytriton is a PyTriton - Flask/FastAPI-like interface to simplify Triton's deployment in Python environments.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel. NVIDIA Triton Inference Server contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause an authentication bypass. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to escalation of privileges, denial of service, or information disclosure.
Note: This vulnerability is only exploitable when using the default bundled Python backend /pytriton/tritonserver/backends/python/libtriton_python.so and requires the attacker to obtain the shared memory key of a legitimate user-owned region.
Workaround
It is possible to update the Python backend to a patched version independently of PyTriton; See Triton Inference Server Backend and Building binaries from source.
