piccolo-orm — Vulnerabilities & Security Advisories 3

Piccolo-ORM is a Python ORM library designed for database interaction in web applications. Historically, it has been susceptible to remote code execution vulnerabilities due to unsafe deserialization and insecure object instantiation, with three CVEs recorded. Common issues include improper input validation leading to injection attacks and insecure default configurations. The library's dynamic query building has introduced risks where user input could manipulate query structures, potentially resulting in privilege escalation or data exposure. While no major public security incidents have been documented, the existing CVEs highlight risks in environments where untrusted input interacts with ORM functionality, particularly in applications relying on its auto-generated query features.
