MLflow before 3.18.0 using the FileStore backend contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to write files outside the intended run directory by supplying a malicious model_id parameter to the log outputs API. Attackers can exploit the unvalidated model_id containing ../ sequences via the POST /api/3.0/mlflow/runs/outputs endpoint to create directories and write a meta.yaml file at arbitrary filesystem locations, limited only by the server account's permissions. FileStore was the default backend before 3.7.0 and is opt-in afterward through MLFLOW_ALLOW_FILE_STORE.
