Last modified

CVE-2026-56121 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Feast before 0.63.0 contains an unsafe deserialization vulnerability that allows unauthenticated or unauthorized attackers to achieve remote code execution by sending a crafted gRPC request to the registry server. The user_defined_function.body field of an OnDemandFeatureView spec is decoded from base64 and passed to dill.loads() before any authorization check is performed, enabling attackers to embed a malicious serialized Python object with an arbitrary __reduce__ method to execute OS commands as the feast service account.. EPSS estimates a 1.37% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
