CVE-2025-1716

  3. CVE-2025-1716
picklescan before 0.0.21 does not treat 'pip' as an unsafe global. An attacker could craft a malicious model that uses Pickle to pull in a malicious PyPI package (hosted, for example, on pypi.org or GitHub) via `pip.main()`. Because pip is not a restricted global, the model, when scanned with picklescan, would pass security checks and appear to be safe, when it could instead prove to be problematic.

Summary
  • (es) Las versiones anteriores a la versión 0.0.21 de picklescan no tratan a 'pip' como una variable global insegura. Un atacante podría manipular un modelo malicioso que use Pickle para incorporar un paquete PyPI malicioso (alojado, por ejemplo, en pypi.org o GitHub) a través de `pip.main()`. Debido a que pip no es una variable global restringida, el modelo, al analizarse con picklescan, pasaría los controles de seguridad y parecería ser seguro, cuando en realidad podría resultar problemático.
