CVE-2026-54690

koxudaxi datamodel-code-generator

datamodel-code-generator generates Pydantic v2 models, dataclasses, TypedDict, and msgspec.Struct from OpenAPI, JSON Schema, GraphQL, Avro, Protobuf, and raw JSON, YAML, or CSV. From 0.9.1 until 0.61.0, datamodel-code-generator silently dereferences attacker-controlled JSON Schema $ref HTTP or HTTPS URLs in src/datamodel_code_generator/parser/jsonschema.py through _get_ref_body, and the --allow-remote-refs gate can warn instead of blocking, allowing server-side request forgery through src/datamodel_code_generator/http.py. This issue is fixed in version 0.61.0.
