+PoC: ModelScan Bypass via Joblib Pickle Payload
+================================================
+Demonstrates that malicious joblib files can bypass ProtectAI's ModelScan
+scanner by using modules not in the unsafe_globals blocklist.
+
+The scanner checks for GLOBAL/STACK_GLOBAL opcodes referencing known-dangerous
+modules (os, subprocess, builtins, etc.) but misses many modules that can
+achieve the same effect:
+
+  - importlib.import_module  -> imports any module (including blocked ones)
+  - ctypes.CDLL              -> loads native libraries, calls system()
+  - platform.popen           -> direct command execution
+  - types.FunctionType       -> construct functions from marshal bytecode
+  - code.InteractiveConsole  -> interactive Python execution
+  - multiprocessing.Process  -> spawn processes
+
+This PoC generates 3 malicious .joblib files and verifies they bypass
+ModelScan's pickle scanner detection.
+
+Usage:
+    python modelscan_bypass_poc.py              # Generate payloads + verify
+    python modelscan_bypass_poc.py --dry-run    # Just show what would happen
