Monai · Monai · CVE-2026-100846
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
MONAI versions prior to 1.5.2
**Description**
An issue exists where untrusted data is deserialized in the `algo from pickle()` function within monai/auto3dseg/utils.py. The function processes .pkl files using `pickle.loads()` without validating the source or content. An attacker can provide a malicious pickle file containing an object that defines ` reduce `, which is then executed during deserialization, leading to arbitrary code execution within the application context.
**Recommendations**
Update to version 1.5.2 or later.
As a temporary mitigation, avoid using the `algo from pickle()` function with files from untrusted sources.
