    CVE-2025-55560 PyTorch DoS: Inductor Sparse to Dense Fix and Mitigation

    A newly assigned vulnerability, CVE-2025-55560, identifies a Denial‑of‑Service (DoS) condition in PyTorch v2.7.0 that can be triggered when a model uses torch.Tensor.to_sparse followed by torch.Tensor.to_dense and is compiled with the Inductor backend (torch.compile). The defect has been tracked...
