Fujitsu Research's OneCompression library 1.2.0 contains an unsafe deserialization vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a crafted model.pt checkpoint file, as QuantizedModelLoader.load_quantized_model_pt() unconditionally calls torch.load with weights_only=False, invoking Python's pickle machinery during deserialization. Attackers can embed malicious __reduce__ methods in a crafted model checkpoint to execute arbitrary Python code, including system commands, when the library loads the file from a caller-selected model directory.

AnalysisAI
Arbitrary code execution in Fujitsu Research's OneCompression (onecomp) Python library 1.2.0 is triggered when a victim loads a crafted PyTorch checkpoint file via the library's QuantizedModelLoader API, which unconditionally invokes Python's pickle machinery. The root cause is the hardcoded use of torch.load with weights_only=False in load_quantized_model_pt(), allowing an attacker-supplied checkpoint to embed malicious __reduce__ methods that execute arbitrary Python - including OS commands - in the context of the loading process. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, though a patched version (1.2.1) is available on PyPI per the VulnCheck advisory.
Technical ContextAI
PyTorch's torch.load function supports two deserialization modes: weights_only=True (safe, restricts unpickling to tensor primitives) and weights_only=False (unsafe, invokes Python's full pickle machinery). PyTorch deprecated and then restricted the unsafe mode precisely because .pt/.pth checkpoint files are serialized Python objects, and pickle's __reduce__ protocol allows arbitrary class instantiation and code execution at deserialization time. The affected component, QuantizedModelLoader.load_quantized_model_pt() in cpe:2.3:a:fujitsu_research:onecompression:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* version 1.2.0, hardcodes weights_only=False, meaning any caller passing an untrusted checkpoint path exposes the process to full code execution. CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data) precisely captures this class: the application trusts the structure and content of a serialized object from an untrusted source without validation.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the onecomp package to version 1.2.1 immediately via pip install --upgrade onecomp; this is the vendor-released patch confirmed on PyPI at https://pypi.org/project/onecomp/1.2.1/. If an immediate upgrade is not feasible, the specific compensating control is to avoid calling load_quantized_model_pt() with any checkpoint file sourced from an untrusted or unverified origin - restrict model loading to files with a verified cryptographic signature or hash checked against a trusted manifest before the load call. As an alternative workaround in code, callers can monkey-patch or wrap the loader to intercept the torch.load call and enforce weights_only=True, though this may break loading of models that include non-tensor objects and requires testing for compatibility. Do not rely on filesystem permissions alone, as the vulnerability is in the deserialization of the file content, not file access control.
