CVE-2024-12433Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via unsafe RPC deserialization

Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Mar 20, 2025

Unsafe deserialization in InfiniFlow RAGFlow before 0.14.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through its RPC service. The RPC listener authenticates clients with a hard-coded key embedded in the source, then passes bytes from accepted connections directly to pickle.loads(). Network access to the RPC listener is sufficient to run code in the server process without a RAGFlow account.
