Description

A flaw was found in python-transformers. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing a malicious model repository. During model initialization, the `trust_remote_code` parameter, intended to prevent remote code execution, is overridden by untrusted configuration data. This allows the attacker to execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to credential theft, unauthorized access, or the deployment of backdoors.
