CVE-2025-13707
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedTencent HunyuanDiT model_resume Deserialization of Untrusted Data Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Tencent HunyuanDiT. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the model_resume function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-27183.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysisThe application rebuilds objects from attacker-supplied serialized data, and the act of rebuilding can trigger dangerous code paths. In many runtimes this leads straight to remote code execution. The durable fix is to avoid deserializing untrusted input — or to use a strict, type-limited format with integrity checks.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped- Review the vendor patch commit at https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/HunyuanDiT/commit/d2cb9cde5c9dc6a6c01735dcb92fe7699ddf6bc5 to understand the exact code changes made to fix the model_resume deserialization vulnerability
- Identify the vulnerable code path in the model_resume function that performs deserialization without proper validation
- Apply the vendor fix by incorporating the changes from the commit into the local HunyuanDiT installation
- After applying the patch, verify that the model_resume function now properly validates user-supplied data before deserialization
- Test the fix to ensure legitimate model_resume functionality still works correctly
- Consider implementing additional input validation and security controls around model loading/deserialization functions as a defense-in-depth measure
