Description
MONAI through 1.6.0 contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the bundle configuration engine that resolves target values to arbitrary importable callables without an allow list and passes $ expressions to Python eval(). Attackers can publish a malicious bundle with crafted configuration containing arbitrary code that executes when a victim loads the bundle using monai.bundle.load() or monai.bundle.run().
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
No fixed release is recorded for CVE-2026-100840 yet. Track the upstream advisory, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
