CVE-2025-71372
Picklescan before 0.0.33 fails to detect the numpy.f2py.crackfortran.getlincoef gadget in pickle __reduce__ methods, allowing arbitrary code execution. Attackers can craft malicious pickle files that execute arbitrary Python code when loaded, bypassing Picklescan's safety checks and enabling supply-chain poisoning of shared model files.
No public exploitation has been reported so far. No distribution fix is listed yet; apply vendor mitigations and monitor.

Affected & fixed versions by distribution
Versions are the native distribution strings (backport-aware): RHEL/Debian/SUSE backport fixes, so compare with the distro version comparator (dpkg / rpm / vercmp), not the upstream version.
No affected package in the tracked watchlist yet (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, SUSE, Red Hat...). Triage may still be pending.
