Summary

picklescan before 0.0.30 fails to detect the doctest.debug_script function when analyzing pickle files, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code. Remote attackers can craft malicious pickle files embedding doctest.debug_script calls that bypass picklescan detection and execute arbitrary commands upon pickle.load invocation.
