Description

CVE-2026-54653 is a high severity code injection vulnerability in koxudaxi's datamodel-code-generator affecting versions from 0.17.0 up to but not including 0.60.2. The tool generates Python models from various schema formats and improperly preserves attacker-controlled default_factory values, which are emitted into generated code. This allows execution of arbitrary Python expressions when the generated model is imported. The issue is fixed in version 0.60.2.

Technical Analysis

The datamodel-code-generator tool versions >=0.17.0 and <0.60.2 improperly handle default_factory values derived from input schemas. Specifically, in src/datamodel_code_generator/parser/jsonschema.py, the JsonSchemaObject.init and get_field_extras methods preserve and emit these values directly into Field(default_factory=...) or field(default_factory=...) constructs. Because these values can be attacker-controlled, this leads to code injection allowing arbitrary Python expression execution upon importing the generated model. This vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2026-54653 and is fixed in version 0.60.2.

Potential Impact

An attacker able to influence the input schema to datamodel-code-generator can inject arbitrary Python code that will execute when the generated model is imported. This can lead to full compromise of the environment running the generated code, including confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. The CVSS 3.1 score is 8.8 (high), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade datamodel-code-generator to version 0.60.2 or later, where this code injection vulnerability is fixed. Until upgrading, avoid processing untrusted or attacker-controlled input schemas with affected versions. Patch status is confirmed fixed in 0.60.2.
