CVE-2025-10157

7.8 · HIGH
Published Sep 17, 2025 mmaitre314 CWE-693 EPSS 0.79% (54th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2025-10157 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting mmaitre314 picklescan. It was published on September 17, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

A Protection Mechanism Failure vulnerability in mmaitre314 picklescan versions up to and including 0.0.30 allows a remote attacker to bypass the unsafe globals check. This is possible because the scanner performs an exact match for module names, allowing malicious payloads to be loaded via submodules of dangerous packages (e.g., 'asyncio.unix_events' instead of 'asyncio').

When the incorrectly considered safe file is loaded after scan, it can lead to the execution of malicious code.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from mmaitre314. Update picklescan to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
