Malicious ML models found on Hugging Face Hub

Researchers have spotted two machine learning (ML) models containing malicious code on Hugging Face Hub, the popular online repository for datasets and pre-trained models. Once one of them is downloaded and executed on the developer’s machine, the malicious payload checks if it is being executed on a Windows, Linux or a system using the Mach kernel (e.g., macOS). Depending on the results of the check, it uses different programming logic to create a reverse shell … More → The post Malicious ML models found on Hugging Face Hub appeared first on Help Net Security.
