MLflow Default Credentials

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 114323

Synopsis

MLflow Default Credentials

Description

By default, MLflow does not require authentication to access the application. When enabling authentication, MLflow will enforce a basic authentication with default credentials. If not updated, a remote and unauthenticated attacker could access the MLflow UI and peform arbitrary actions on it.

Solution

The application should not be configured with accounts using default or predictable credentials. A complex password policy should be defined and enforced on every account available in the application to prevent attackers from guessing it and have unauthorized access to the application.
