Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2026-07-07 14:34 - Updated: 2026-07-07 17:24

Details

An arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists in versions 0.2.9 up to 0.5.10 of the Guardrails AI Guardrails framework because of the way it validates XML files. If a victim user loads a maliciously crafted XML file containing Python code, the code will be passed to an eval function, causing it to execute on the user's machine.
