GHSA-rcxc-3w2m-mp8h: Unsafe deserialisation in the PKI implementation scheme of NVFlare
Impact
NVFLARE contains a vulnerability in its PKI implementation module, where The CA credentials are transported via pickle and no safe deserialization. The deserialization of Untrusted Data may allow an unprivileged network attacker to cause Remote Code Execution, Denial Of Service, and Impact to both Confidentiality and Integrity. All versions before 2.1.2 are affected.
