Improper Validation of Model Category

vulnerability-scan/src/utils/router_utils.py

The function `validate_model_category` does not properly validate the model category against a whitelist of allowed categories. An attacker can provide any string as the `model_ctgry`, and if it matches the pattern for alphanumeric, underscore, or hyphen characters, the function will pass without checking its membership in `ALLOWED_MODEL_CATEGORIES`. This allows an attacker to bypass intended access controls by providing a category that grants them unauthorized privileges.

Impact:
An attacker can gain unauthorized access to the system by specifying any model category allowed by the pattern check, potentially leading to data breaches or system takeover if they are granted additional permissions based on this unchecked input.
Mitigation:
Modify `validate_model_category` to include a strict check against `ALLOWED_MODEL_CATEGORIES`. Ensure that only predefined categories can be assigned to model_ctgry. Example: python def validate_model_category(model_ctgry: str) -> None: if model_ctgry not in ALLOWED_MODEL_CATEGORIES: raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail=f"Invalid model category. Allowed: {ALLOWED_MODEL_CATEGORIES}")
