CVE-2026-94092 Details
Description
A vulnerability was detected in dmlc dgl up to 2.1.0. This impacts the function load_info/_read_torch_data of the file utils.py. Performing a manipulation of the argument path results in deserialization. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
A vulnerability allowing arbitrary code execution has been identified in the DGL (Deep Graph Library) Python package, specifically in versions through 2.1.0. The issue arises in the 'load_info' function within 'utils.py', where a manipulation of the 'path' argument leads to unsafe deserialization. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely, as the 'load_info' function is a public API recommended for use with DGL datasets. The problem is exacerbated by the 'read_data' function in the 'graphbolt' module, which also facilitates unsafe deserialization by calling 'torch.load' with disabled safety features, allowing for the execution of attacker-controlled payloads.
Users can set the 'TORCH_FORCE_WEIGHTS_ONLY_LOAD=1' environment variable before loading DGL data files to mitigate the vulnerability when using the 'read_data' function. However, this non-default setting may disrupt the loading of legitimate old PyTorch checkpoints.
