- This PR turns on pickle scanning before a legacy checkpoint file
is loaded from disk within the checkpoint_to_diffusers module.
- Also miscellaneous diagnostic message cleanup.
- When a legacy checkpoint model is loaded via --convert_ckpt and its
models.yaml stanza refers to a custom VAE path (using the 'vae:'
key), the custom VAE will be converted and used within the diffusers
model. Otherwise the VAE contained within the legacy model will be
used.
- Note that the heuristic_import() method, which imports arbitrary
legacy files on disk and URLs, will continue to default to the
the standard stabilityai/sd-vae-ft-mse VAE. This can be fixed after
the fact by editing the models.yaml stanza using the Web or CLI
UIs.
- Fixes issue #2917
Prior to this commit, all models would be loaded with the extremely unsafe `torch.load` method, except those with the exact extension `.safetensors`. Even a change in casing (eg. `saFetensors`, `Safetensors`, etc) would cause the file to be loaded with torch.load instead of the much safer `safetensors.toch.load_file`.
If a malicious actor renamed an infected `.ckpt` to something like `.SafeTensors` or `.SAFETENSORS` an unsuspecting user would think they are loading a safe .safetensor, but would in fact be parsing an unsafe pickle file, and executing an attacker's payload. This commit fixes this vulnerability by reversing the loading-method decision logic to only use the unsafe `torch.load` when the file extension is exactly `.ckpt`.
There are actually two Stable Diffusion v2 legacy checkpoint
configurations:
1) "epsilon" prediction type for Stable Diffusion v2 Base
2) "v-prediction" type for Stable Diffusion v2-768
This commit adds the configuration file needed for epsilon prediction
type models as well as the UI that prompts the user to select the
appropriate configuration file when the code can't do so
automatically.
