Picklescan Bypasses Unsafe Globals Check using pty.spawn

Summary The vulnerability allows malicious actors to bypass PickleScan's unsafe globals check, leading to potential arbitrary code execution. The issue stems from the absence of the pty library more specifically, of the pty.spawn function from PickleScan's list of unsafe globals. This vulnerabili...

GHSA-VQMV-47XG-9WPR Picklescan missing detection when calling pty.spawn

Summary Using pty.spawn, which is a built-in python library function to execute arbitrary commands on the host system. Details The attack payload executes in the following steps: First, the attacker craft the payload by calling to pty.spawn function in the reduce method. Then the victim attempts ...

Fickling is a Python pickling decompiler and static analyzer. Versions prior to 0.1.6 had a bypass caused by pty missing from the block list of unsafe module imports. This led to unsafe pickles based on pty.spawn being incorrectly flagged as LIKELYSAFE, and was fixed in version 0.1.6. This impact...

CVE-2025-67748

Fickling CVE-2025-67748 describes a bypass in which the blocklist of unsafe imports did not include pty, allowing unsafe pickles using pty.spawn() to be misclassified as LIKELY_SAFE. The root cause is documented as the unsafe-imports check missing pty in version

PT-2025-51355

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Fickling versions prior to 0.1.6 Description Fickling, a Python pickling decompiler and static analyzer, contained a bypass related to missing unsafe module imports. Specifically, the pty module was not included in the block list, leading to...

Fickling has Code Injection vulnerability via pty.spawn()

Fickling Assessment Based on the test case provided in the original report below, this bypass was caused by pty missing from our block list of unsafe module imports as previously documented in 108, rather than the unused variable heuristic. This led to unsafe pickles based on pty.spawn being...
