CVE-2025-71351

HIGHPre-NVD 7.67.6
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 7.6 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.4%, top 66% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

picklescan before 0.0.25 fails to detect malicious pickle files that use timeit.timeit() in the __reduce__ method, allowing remote code execution. Attackers can craft pickle files that import dangerous libraries like os and execute arbitrary system commands, which evade picklescan detection and execute when pickle.load() is called.
