GHSA-rh4j-5rhw-hr54: vllm: Malicious model to RCE by torch.load in hf_model_weights_iterator

### Description The vllm/model_executor/weight_utils.py implements hf_model_weights_iterator to load the model checkpoint, which is downloaded from huggingface. It use torch.load function and weights_only parameter is default value False. There is a security warning on https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/generated/torch.load.html, when torch.load load a malicious pickle data it will execute arbitrary code during unpickling. ### Impact This vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary codes and OS commands in the victim machine who fetch the pretrained repo remotely. Note that most models now use the safetensors format, which is not vulnerable to this issue. ### References * https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/generated/torch.load.html * Fix: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/12366

GHSA-j2hp-6m75-v4j4: imgproxy is vulnerable to SSRF against 0.0.0.0

### Summary Imgproxy does not block the `0.0.0.0` address, even with `IMGPROXY_ALLOW_LOOPBACK_SOURCE_ADDRESSES` set to false. This can expose services on the local host. ### Details imgproxy protects against SSRF against a loopback address with the following check ([source](https://github.com/imgproxy/imgproxy/blob/0f37d62fd8326a32c213b30dd52e2319770885d8/security/source.go#L43C1-L47C1)): ``` if !config.AllowLoopbackSourceAddresses && ip.IsLoopback() { return ErrSourceAddressNotAllowed } ``` This check is insufficient to prevent accessing services on the local host, as services may receive traffic on `0.0.0.0`. Go's `IsLoopback` ([source](https://github.com/golang/go/blob/40b3c0e58a0ae8dec4684a009bf3806769e0fc41/src/net/ip.go#L126-L131)) strictly follows the definition of loopback IPs beginning with `127`. `0.0.0.0` is not blocked.
