CVE-2023-43654

ShellTorch Logo

ShellTorch is a chain of 3 Critical Vulnerabilities in PyTorch TorchServe - the default inference server of PyTorch. This is an End-to-End POC for an SSRF vulnerability which leads to Arbitrary Remote Code Execution from the network

1. Run TorchServe 0.8.1

root@kitploit:~
docker run -d --rm -it -p 8080:8080 -p 8081:8081 -p 8082:8082 -p 7070:7070 -p 7071:7071 --name shelltorch-demo pytorch/torchserve:0.8.1-cpu

docker logs -f shelltorch-demo

2. Run the ShellTorch-Checker script

This tool is used to check if a given deployment is vulnerable to CVE-2023-43654.

root@kitploit:~
bash <(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OligoCyberSecurity/ShellTorchChecker/main/ShellTorchChecker.sh) "127.0.0.1"

Output:

Press any key to start scanning, Press Ctrl+C to exit.

torchserve is not running locally.
Scan Results:
  [-] Checking Management Interface API Misconfiguration (port 8081)
    [X] 127.0.0.1:8081 is open to remote connections
  [-] Checking CVE-2023-43654 Remote Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
    [X] Vulnerable to CVE-2023-43654 SSRF file download

Recomendations:
  [-] To resolve Management Interface API Misconfiguration:
      Change "management_address" in config.properties from 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1
      example:
        management_address: http://127.0.0.1:8081
  [-] To resolve CVE-2023-43654 SSRF file download:
      Configure specific urls in the "allowed_urls" field of config.properties.
      example:
        allowed_urls=https://s3.amazonaws.com/.*,https://torchserve.pytorch.org/.*

3. Cleanup

root@kitploit:~
docker kill shelltorch-demo && rm -rf model-store
