| Description | datamodel-code-generator generates Python data models from schema definitions. From 0.51.0 until 0.60.2, x-python-type values parsed by src/datamodel_code_generator/parser/jsonschema.py in _get_python_type_override are inserted into generated field annotations without sufficient validation, allowing attacker-controlled JSON Schema content to execute Python code when the generated module is imported. This issue is fixed in version 0.60.2. |
