GHSA-qr6x-7v33-6qmg: rembg (CVE-2026-115924)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
rembg	PyPI	<2.0.82	2.0.82

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The rembg Python package, versions before 2.0.82, has a flaw in its SAM model handling: the public /api/remove endpoint uses an attacker-supplied sam_model value to build file paths and download URLs without validation. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use path traversal and a URL fragment to place crafted ONNX models next to a target file, then have the service return that file's contents encoded in a PNG mask. Upgrade to rembg 2.0.82, which fixes the issue.
