PYSEC-2026-4020

Quick fix

PYSEC-2026-4020 — monai: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'monai>=1.6.0'

Details

MONAI before 1.6.0 contains an unsafe deserialization vulnerability in the NumpyReader class that unconditionally uses numpy.load with allow_pickle=True when loading .npy and .npz files. Attackers can craft malicious .npy files with pickle payloads that execute arbitrary code when loaded through MONAI's standard data pipeline.
