Description

CVE-2026-54656 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in koxudaxi's datamodel-code-generator affecting versions from 0.52.1 up to but not including 0.60.2. The tool generates Pydantic v2 models and other data models from various schema formats. The vulnerability arises because the software interpolates validators from the --extra-template-data option into @field_validator decorators without safe validation, allowing arbitrary Python code execution when the generated model is imported. This issue is fixed in version 0.60.2.

Technical Analysis

The datamodel-code-generator tool versions >=0.52.1 and <0.60.2 improperly handle code generation by interpolating user-supplied validator code from the --extra-template-data parameter directly into Pydantic v2 model validators without sanitization. This unsafe interpolation occurs in src/datamodel_code_generator/model/pydantic_v2/base_model.py via the _process_validators function, leading to potential arbitrary Python code execution upon importing the generated model. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code). The issue is resolved in version 0.60.2.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary Python code in the context of the environment importing the generated Pydantic v2 model. This can lead to full compromise of the host system, including confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8 (high), reflecting local attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Mitigation Recommendations

A fix is available in datamodel-code-generator version 0.60.2. Users should upgrade to version 0.60.2 or later to remediate this vulnerability. Until upgrading, avoid importing generated models from untrusted or unsanitized --extra-template-data inputs.
