PYSEC-2025-139
Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2025-11-21 19:16 - Updated: 2026-05-20 09:19MLX is an array framework for machine learning on Apple silicon. Prior to version 0.29.4, there is a segmentation fault in mlx::core::load_gguf() when loading malicious GGUF files. Untrusted pointer from external gguflib library is dereferenced without validation, causing application crash. This issue has been patched in version 0.29.4.
