ZDI disclosed 10 unpatched Meta fairseq zero-days that can run code after a user opens a malicious file or page.

Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative published 10 unpatched remote code-execution advisories affecting Meta's fairseq library, all scored CVSS 7.8 and labeled zero-days. Nine are YAML file-parsing code-injection flaws in named model or optimizer components; ZDI-26-943 is untrusted-data deserialization in load_checkpoint_to_cpu. Exploitation requires a user to open a malicious file, and for ZDI-26-943 a malicious page or file. None of the notices names affected builds, a fix, or a CVE.

Key facts
  • Ten advisories: ZDI-26-914, 922, 923, 924, 927, 928, 929, 930, 935, and 943.
  • Nine issues are YAML parsing code injection; ZDI-26-943 is checkpoint deserialization.
  • Every advisory is labeled a zero-day and scored CVSS 7.8 by ZDI.
  • The user must open a malicious file; ZDI-26-943 also cites a malicious page.
  • No affected versions, patches, or CVE identifiers are stated.
