GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr
MEDIUMGHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr is a medium-severity (CVSS 5.4) Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in mlflow. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
MLflow is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) caused by unsafe parsing of YAML-based MLmodel artifacts in its web interface
Blast Radius
mlflowReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
MLflow is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) caused by unsafe parsing of YAML-based MLmodel artifacts in its web interface. An authenticated attacker can upload a malicious MLmodel file containing a payload that executes when another user views the artifact in the UI. This allows actions such as session hijacking or performing operations on behalf of the victim.
This issue affects MLflow version through 3.10.1
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for mlflow. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update mlflow to 3.11.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-fh64-r2vc-xvhr across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
