picklescan before 0.0.33 fails to detect unsafe deserialization when numpy.f2py.crackfortran functions call eval on arbitrary strings. Attackers can embed malicious code in pickle files that executes when loaded from untrusted sources.
The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review.

Confirm exposure before applying a vendor-supported change.
Confirm that picklescan and an affected version are present.
Combine exploitation signals with asset exposure and business criticality.
Follow the vendor advisory or supported update path and preserve rollback options.
Recheck the version, service health, access paths, and relevant logs.
