Apache Fory, Apache Fory: Python RCE via unguarded pickle fallback serializer in pyfory

Summary

StatePUBLISHED
Assignerapache
Source PriorityCVE Program / NVD first with legacy fallback
Published2025-10-01 10:15:34 UTC
Updated2026-10-09 09:10:00 UTC
DescriptionDeserialization of untrusted data in python in pyfory versions 0.12.0 through 0.12.2, or the legacy pyfury versions from 0.1.0 through 0.10.3: allows arbitrary code execution. An application is vulnerable if it reads pyfory serialized data from untrusted sources. An attacker can craft a data stream that selects pickle-fallback serializer during deserialization, leading to the execution of `pickle.loads`, which is vulnerable to remote code execution. Users are recommended to upgrade to pyfory version 0.12.3 or later, which has removed pickle fallback serializer and thus fixes this issue.
