Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Deserialization of untrusted data in synthcity versions up to and including 0.2.9 affects the load_from_file function of its PKL file handler. The source describes a remote attack in which a crafted file is deserialized, but gives few details on the required access or the resulting impact. No fixed version is listed; the source says a patch was planned for February 2024.
