Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions picklescan versions prior to 0.0.25
Description The software fails to detect malicious pickle files that utilize the timeit.timeit() function within the reduce method. This allows for remote code execution, as attackers can craft pickle files that import dangerous libraries such as os to execute arbitrary system commands. These files evade detection and are executed when the pickle.load() function is called.
Recommendations Update to version 0.0.25 or later.
