picklescan - Remote Code Execution via operator.methodcaller Detection Bypass

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 20.06.2026 Published: 04.07.2026 Updated: 04.07.2026

picklescan before 0.0.33 fails to detect operator.methodcaller function calls in pickle files, allowing attackers to bypass security checks. Remote attackers can craft malicious pickle payloads using operator.methodcaller that execute arbitrary code when loaded, compromising systems relying on picklescan for validation.
