The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps picklescan/picklescan (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 8.1. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

picklescan before 0.0.30 fails to detect cProfile.runctx function calls in pickle file reduce methods, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code. Malicious pickle files bypass picklescan detection and execute remote code when loaded via pickle.load().
