A vulnerability found in Python. The flaw occurs when used with the forkserver start method on Linux. The Python multiprocessing library allows Python pickles to be deserialized from any user in the same machine’s local network namespace in many system configurations, which means any user on the same machine. Pickles can execute arbitrary code. This flaw allows local user privilege escalation to the user that any Python multiprocessing forkserver process is running.
