An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-22612 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- fickling (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.1.7\n- fickling (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.1.7\n- fickling (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.1.7\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22612/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22612/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-22612","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22612/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-22612","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h4rm-mm56-xf63","PYSEC-2026-1370"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python pickling analyzer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Fickling fails to detect malicious builtins in pickled data, allowing attackers to bypass security checks during static analysis.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"fickling","vendor":"trailofbits"}],"cvss":{"score":8.9,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Fickling is a Python pickling decompiler and static analyzer.
