CVE-2026-56315 Details
Description
picklescan before 1.0.4 fails to block at least seven Python standard library modules (including uuid, _osx_support, _aix_support, _pyrepl.pager, and imaplib) exposing eight functions that provide direct arbitrary command execution. Attackers can craft malicious pickle files importing these unblocked modules to achieve remote code execution while bypassing picklescan's safety validation entirely.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Picklescan versions prior to 1.0.4. The tool fails to block several Python standard library modules that allow arbitrary command execution. Attackers can create malicious pickle files that import these unblocked modules, bypassing Picklescan's safety validation and executing arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects all deployments relying on Picklescan for pickle safety validation, including HuggingFace Hub.
Users are advised to update Picklescan to version 1.0.4 or later, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
