Google released staged fixes for Google Cloud Vertex AI SDK for Python, closing a bucket-squatting path that could hijack model uploads and enable code execution in Google's serving infrastructure. The first safeguard landed in v1.144.0 on March 31, 2026, and the final hardening arrived in v1.148.0 on April 15, 2026. The update changed temporary bucket selection and then added bucket ownership verification in Model.upload(). Users of the SDK should move to 1.148.0 or later to activate the completed fix.
