Summary

Picklescan before version 0.0.34 fails to detect the _operator.methodcaller built-in function when scanning pickle files for malicious code. Attackers can craft malicious pickle payloads using _operator.methodcaller that evade detection and execute arbitrary code when loaded by pickle.load().

Risk Assessment

The organization is at risk of remote code execution by loading a crafted pickle file, which could lead to system compromise, data theft, or further attack propagation.

Recommendation

Immediately update picklescan to version 0.0.34 or later. Until updated, avoid loading pickle files from untrusted sources.
