CVE-2026-79784: Vocos instantiates a class named by a configuration file without restricting which class may be named. instantiate_class
Summary
Vocos, an AI model loading library, has a security flaw where it loads and runs any code specified in a configuration file without checking if that code is safe (instantiate_class, a function that creates objects based on config file instructions, doesn't use an allowlist to restrict which classes can be loaded). This means if you load a model from an untrusted source, the attacker who controls that source can run arbitrary code on your computer during the loading process.
