CVE-2026-18618

A flaw was found in ml-metadata. The statically-linked gRPC stack in ml-metadata is outdated, making it vulnerable to known HTTP/2 denial of service (DoS) issues. An in-cluster attacker, with network access to the MLMD pod, could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending specially crafted HTTP/2 requests. This could lead to a denial of service by crashing the MLMD pod, disrupting all pipeline runs in the affected namespace.
