Summary

A vulnerability in picklescan before version 0.0.30 fails to detect malicious pickle files using idlelib.run.Executive.runcode in reduce methods. Attackers can embed undetected code in pickle files that executes during pickle.load, enabling remote code execution in PyTorch models and supply chain attacks.

Risk Assessment

The organization is at risk of remote code execution when loading PyTorch models, which could lead to system compromise, data theft, or malware propagation in the supply chain.

Recommendation

Immediately update picklescan to version 0.0.30 or later and implement scanning of all pickle files before use, especially in environments processing PyTorch models.
