MLflow allows unauthorized access to multipart upload endpoints when the `--serve-artifacts` mode is enabled
A vulnerability in MLflow versions <=3.10.1.dev0 allows unauthorized access to multipart upload (MPU) endpoints when the --serve-artifacts mode is enabled. The authorization logic does not enforce resource-level permission checks for /mlflow-artifacts/mpu/* endpoints, enabling attackers to overwrite artifacts belonging to other users. This can lead to unauthorized cross-user writes, model supply chain poisoning, and arbitrary code execution when compromised models are loaded. The issue is resolved in version 3.10.0.
