Real-World Exposure
scio-pypiReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
PyTorch reported a critical vulnerability when using torch.load, even with option weights_only=True, for torch <= 2.5.1.
In scio <= 1.0.0, the lower bound for torch is 2.3.
Patches
The lower bound was changed to torch >= 2.6, starting from scio >= 1.0.1 (currently in dev state).
Workarounds
You can manually check that you are using torch >= 2.6.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for scio-pypi, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Remediation status
The records we use list no patched version of scio-pypi for GHSA-m9mp-6x32-5rhg. Check the maintainer's advisory, and where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
