CVE-2026-4035
A vulnerability in mlflow/mlflow versions prior to 3.11.0 allows for the resolution of environment variables in AI Gateway secrets, which can be exploited to exfiltrate sensitive server-side environment credentials to an attacker-controlled endpoint. This issue arises because the api_key field in gateway secrets can accept $ENV_VAR references, which are resolved against the MLflow server's environment during runtime. The resolved secrets are then sent in provider authentication headers to the configured upstream api_base.
This vulnerability can be exploited by low-privileged authenticated users in basic-auth deployments or by unauthenticated users in default deployments without basic-auth. The impact includes potential leakage of sensitive credentials such as cloud artifact credentials (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY), which could lead to artifact poisoning and cross-boundary code execution in downstream environments. The issue is fixed in version 3.11.0.
