Modelscan Bypass PoC — shutil.rmtree() Destructive Delete

Vulnerability

Modelscan 0.7.6 fails to detect malicious pickle files that use shutil.rmtree for Destructive file deletion — can delete entire project directories, databases, or system files. DoS via data destruction.

The shutil module is not in modelscan's unsafe_globals blocklist.

Chain

shutil.rmtree(path) — not blocked\n2. Recursively deletes entire directory trees

Reproduction

modelscan scan -p pytorch_model.bin
# Result: "No issues found"

python3 -c "import pickle; result = pickle.loads(open('pytorch_model.bin','rb').read()); print(result)"
# Result: Deletes entire directory tree recursively

Impact

Destructive file deletion — can delete entire project directories, databases, or system files. DoS via data destruction. Severity: CRITICAL.
