CVE-2025-71355 PUBLISHED

Picklescan - Arbitrary Code Execution via Unsafe Numpy Function Detection Bypass

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 20.06.2026 Published: 30.06.2026 Updated: 01.07.2026

Picklescan before 0.0.25 fails to detect unsafe global functions in the Numpy library, allowing attackers to bypass static analysis and execute arbitrary code during deserialization. Attackers can craft malicious pickle files using numpy.testing._private.utils.runstring within the reduce method to import dangerous libraries like os and execute arbitrary OS commands when the pickle file is loaded.
