This rule raises an issue when `pytorch.load` is used to load a model.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Why is this an issue?
|
||
|
|
||
|
In PyTorch, it is common to load serialized models using the `torch.load` function.
|
||
|
Under the hood, `torch.load` uses the `pickle` library to load the model and the weights.
|
||
|
If the model comes from an untrusted source, an attacker could inject a malicious payload which would be executed during the deserialization.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== How to fix it
|
||
|
|
||
|
Use a safer alternative to load the model, such as `safetensors.torch.load_model`. Alternatively, PyTorch can be instructed to only load
|
||
|
the weights by setting the parameter `weights_only=True`. This avoids the use of the `pickle` library and is therefore safe. Note that the
|
||
|
use of `weights_only` requires saving only the `state_dict` of a model instead of the whole model.
