Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Picklescan versions before 0.0.33 fail to flag pickle files that call numpy.f2py.crackfortran.param_eval, so a malicious file can pass the scan as safe. An attacker who can get a crafted pickle file to a victim can cause code execution when the victim loads it with pickle.load() after the scan. Upgrade picklescan to version 0.0.33 or later.
