Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) is an open standard for machine learning interoperability. Prior to version 1.21.0, the ExternalDataInfo class in ONNX was using Python’s setattr() function to load metadata (like file paths or data lengths) directly from an ONNX model file. It didn’t check if the "keys" in the file were valid. Due to this, an attacker could craft a malicious model that overwrites internal object properties. This issue has been patched in version 1.21.0.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) is an open standard for machine learning interoperability. Prior to     version 1.21.0, the ExternalDataInfo class in ONNX was using Python's setattr() function to load metadata     (like file paths or data lengths) directly from an ONNX model file. It didn't check if the keys in the     file were valid. Due to this, an attacker could craft a malicious model that overwrites internal object     properties. This issue has been patched in version 1.21.0. (CVE-2026-34445)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
