AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
File-based trigger is local (AV:L); no privileges needed to call the function (PR:N); victim must actively load the malicious file (UI:R); full process compromise results (C/I/A:H).

Aeon load_rehab_pile_dataset Deserialization of Untrusted Data Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Aeon. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the load_rehab_pile_dataset method. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28749.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Aeon 1.3.0 is triggered when a user loads a maliciously crafted dataset file via the load_rehab_pile_dataset function, which called numpy's np.load() with allow_pickle=True - enabling full Python pickle deserialization of attacker-controlled content. Reported by Zero Day Initiative (ZDI-CAN-28749 / ZDI-26-468) and tracked as EUVD-2026-63433, the vulnerability carries CVSS 7.8 with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact limited by local attack vector and required user interaction. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the target to actively call load_rehab_pile_dataset() with a file path that resolves to an attacker-controlled .npy or .npz file containing a serialized pickle payload. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.8 score (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) accurately captures the attack's high impact ceiling but reflects meaningful constraints: exploitation is local (AV:L, meaning the malicious file must be accessible on the victim's filesystem) and requires active user interaction (UI:R, the victim must call load_rehab_pile_dataset against the malicious file). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply the upstream patch commit 751918052c0cce266b4f7cd4b084408526efc015 available at https://github.com/aeon-toolkit/aeon/commit/751918052c0cce266b4f7cd4b084408526efc015, which removes allow_pickle=True from np.load() calls in rehabpile_loader.py and replaces unsafe eval() with ast.literal_eval() in _tss_data_loaders.py. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: identify and inventory all systems and users running Aeon 1.3.0, and issue a security alert directing users not to open dataset files from untrusted or external sources. …
