  - FreeCAD is a free and open-source multiplatform 3D parametric modeler. Prior to 1.1.2,
    src/App/PropertyPythonObject.cpp in PropertyPythonObject::Restore() passes the attacker-controlled module
    attribute from serialized PropertyPythonObject XML directly to PyImport_ImportModule() while restoring a
    crafted FCStd document, which executes module-level Python code, and the legacy pickle branch also imports
    an attacker-controlled module and invokes its class constructor through PyObject_CallObject(). This issue
    is fixed in version 1.1.2. (CVE-2026-34789)
