Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from insecure deserialization in model conversion scripts, as indicated by the patch removing these scripts from release wheels (PR #35296). The scripts handled formats like pickle, which are inherently unsafe when loading untrusted data. While explicit function names aren't provided in the advisory, the context strongly points to Trax model conversion scripts as the attack vector. The high confidence comes from the direct correlation between the patch action (removing conversion scripts) and the vulnerability description (unsafe deserialization in model handling).
