EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Description
A command injection vulnerability exists in mlflow/mlflow versions before v3.7.0, specifically in the mlflow/sagemaker/__init__.py file at lines 161-167. The vulnerability arises from the direct interpolation of user-supplied container image names into shell commands without proper sanitization, which are then executed using os.system(). This allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by supplying malicious input through the --container parameter of the CLI. The issue affects environments where MLflow is used, including development setups, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud deployments.
Affected Products
mlflowlfprojectsDetection & mitigation playbook
Vendor / applianceDetect
Inventory every lfprojects mlflow deployment and check each version against the affected-products list above. Because the exploit targets the running system rather than your application code, also watch for remote code execution at the network and runtime layer — O3 flags the exploit behaviour from runtime telemetry and egress traffic even before a vulnerable build is confirmed.
Fix
Apply the lfprojects mlflow security patch or hotfix for CVE-2025-14287 on the affected version, following the vendor advisory for your exact build.
Workarounds
Cut exposure now: restrict the management/admin interface to trusted networks, segment the device, and apply the vendor's recommended configuration mitigations and any WAF/IPS signature. O3's runtime protection blocks the exploit chain at execution, holding the line on unpatched or end-of-life systems until you can patch.
How O3 protects you
O3 detects and blocks CVE-2025-14287 exploitation at runtime: eBPF exploit-chain detection, plus L7 egress monitoring that catches the post-exploitation callback and severs the attacker's outbound channel.
Tailored to CVE-2025-14287. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2025-14287 being exploited in your environment?
O3's eBPF runtime sensors and L7 egress monitoring detect and block the CVE-2025-14287 exploit chain at execution — protecting unpatched and end-of-life systems until the vendor patch is applied.
