Quick fix

PYSEC-2026-3624 — lightning: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'lightning>=2022.6.15'

Details

PyTorch Lightning through 2.6.5, fixed in commit d710d68, contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the _load_state function that imports and executes attacker-controlled module names from checkpoint _instantiator hyperparameters. Attackers can craft malicious checkpoint files that bypass weights_only=True protections to execute arbitrary code when LightningModule.load_from_checkpoint is called.
