Summary
LLaMA-Factory versions up to and including 0.9.3 contain a remote code execution flaw in the training process. The `vhead_file` is loaded without the `weights_only=True` safeguard, so an attacker who supplies a malicious `Checkpoint path` through the `WebUI` interface can run arbitrary code on the host, without the victim noticing.
Mitigation
Version 0.9.4 contains a fix for the issue.
