CVE-2026-48207: Apache fory deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability
Apache · Fory
Deserialization of untrusted data in Apache Fory PyFory. PyFory's ReduceSerializer could bypass documented DeserializationPolicy validation hooks during reduce-state restoration and global-name resolution. An application is vulnerable if it deserializes attacker-controlled data using PyFory Python-native mode with strict mode disabled and relies on DeserializationPolicy to restrict unsafe classes, functions, or module attributes. This issue affects Apache Fory: from before 1.0.0. Mitigation: Users of Apache Fory are recommended to upgrade to version 1.0.0 or later, which enforces DeserializationPolicy validation for the affected ReduceSerializer paths and thus fixes this issue.
