{"cve":"CVE-2026-62997","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-16T21:17:12.990","modified":"2026-09-30T17:51:56.193","status":"Deferred","description":"Kedro-Datasets provides data connectors for Kedro. From version 5.0.0 until 9.5.0, kedro_datasets_experimental.pytorch.PyTorchDataset in kedro-datasets loads .pt model files with torch.load without enforcing weights_only=True, and user-supplied load_args are silently dropped. On PyTorch versions earlier than 2.6, a malicious pickle-backed model from an attacker-influenced shared registry, downloaded checkpoint, or partitioned external source can execute arbitrary code when a Kedro pipeline loads it. The issue affects only the opt-in kedro_datasets_experimental component and does not affect users who load only trusted files. This issue is fixed in version 9.5.0.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":7.7},"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-502"],"references":["https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/commit/4d6deb7a7ecba483d33fd43e2a6c063bcf22f413","https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/issues/1431","https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/pull/1433","https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/releases/tag/kedro-datasets-9.5.0","https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/security/advisories/GHSA-f9q4-h45w-jrrq"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:54:41.405518556+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-62997","score":0.00686,"percentile":0.52348,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
