Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability description explicitly identifies the statusmessages and linkintegrity modules as entry points for malicious pickled data. While exact function names aren't specified in advisories, these modules' core message handling functions would logically contain the pickle.loads() or similar deserialization calls that lack proper validation. The CWE-94 classification confirms this is an insecure deserialization issue, and the critical severity matches the impact of direct pickle execution.
