A flaw in the Google Cloud Vertex AI SDK for Python let an attacker with no access to a victim's project hijack the victim's machine learning model upload and run code inside Google's serving infrastructure.

Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, which found and reported the bug through Google's bug bounty program, calls the technique "Pickle in the Middle" and said it saw no exploitation in the wild.
