MLflow: trace API endpoints lack proper authorization validators

Quick fix

GHSA-2cm6-r77w-6g96 — mlflow: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'mlflow>=3.13.0rc0'

Details

In MLflow versions prior to 3.13.0, when running with authentication enabled, the trace API endpoints lack proper authorization validators. This allows any authenticated user to bypass experiment-level authorization controls on all trace operations, including reading, deleting, and modifying traces on experiments they do not have permission to access. The issue arises from the `_before_request` handler, which does not register authorization validators for trace endpoints, resulting in requests proceeding without validation. This vulnerability can expose sensitive data, destroy audit logs, and allow unauthorized modifications.
