DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in NASA cFS up to 7.0.0. The impacted element is the function pickle.load of the component Pickle Module. Such manipulation leads to deserialization. The attack needs to be performed locally. The attack requires a high level of complexity. The exploitability is regarded as difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

AnalysisAI

Unsafe deserialization in NASA cFS Pickle Module (versions up to 7.0.0) allows authenticated local attackers with low privileges to trigger remote code execution or information disclosure through the pickle.load() function. The vulnerability requires high attack complexity and local access, limiting its practical exploitation scope. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The risk assessment presents a complex picture. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated local user with low system privileges obtains or places a malicious pickle file in a directory monitored by a cFS process (e.g., a configuration directory or message queue location). When the Pickle Module loads this file via pickle.load(), the deserialization process executes arbitrary Python code embedded in the pickle object, allowing the attacker to escalate privileges, exfiltrate telemetry data, or corrupt mission-critical system state. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
