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 · unedited
A flaw has been found in fishaudio Bert-VITS2 up to 8f7fbd8c4770965225d258db548da27dc8dd934c. The affected element is the function _get_all_models of the file hiyoriUI.py of the component Model Handler. This manipulation causes path traversal. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. Continious delivery with rolling releases is used by this product. Therefore, no version details of affected nor updated releases are available. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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 analysis · high confidence

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the _get_all_models function within hiyoriUI.py of the fishaudio Bert-VITS2 project. This allows remote attackers to access files outside the intended directory through specially crafted path inputs in the Model Handler component. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.3 and an exploit is publicly available.

MitigationImplement strict input validation and path sanitization in the _get_all_models function to ensure all file paths resolve within the intended directory. Consider using canonical path resolution and deny-list or allow-list filtering for file access.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate hiyoriUI.py in the environment
    Search for the file hiyoriUI.py within the fishaudio Bert-VITS2 project directory structure. Common paths include the root project directory or a ui/ subdirectory.
    Affected if The file hiyoriUI.py exists in the deployed environment
  2. Verify the _get_all_models function exists
    Open hiyoriUI.py and search for a function definition named _get_all_models. Use 'grep -n "_get_all_models" hiyoriUI.py' or open the file in a text editor.
    Affected if The _get_all_models function is present in the code
  3. Confirm Model Handler component is enabled
    Determine if the Model Handler component that calls _get_all_models is active. Check if the UI or API endpoint that uses this function is exposed or running.
    Affected if The Model Handler component is enabled and accessible
  4. Check for lack of path sanitization in _get_all_models
    Review the _get_all_models function code. Look for path validation logic such as os.path.realpath(), os.path.abspath(), or allow-list/deny-list checks that restrict file access to the intended directory.
    Affected if The function lacks proper path sanitization or canonical path resolution
  5. Compare installed version to known affected versions
    Check the installed version of fishaudio Bert-VITS2. Look for version tags in git repository, setup.py, or __version__ variables.
    Affected if The installed version is prior to any available patch addressing this vulnerability

If hiyoriUI.py with the vulnerable _get_all_models function exists, the Model Handler component is enabled, and the function lacks path sanitization, the environment is affected by this path traversal vulnerability.
