medium Pickle-serialized weights, no safetensors

Weights ship only as pickle-based files (RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220911-79.pth, RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220912-169.pth, RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220913-279.pth, …). Loading pickle executes arbitrary code from the file — prefer a safetensors release or load in a sandbox.

How to fix

Convert the weights to safetensors before loading them anywhere that matters.

  1. Do not load the pickle files in-process — pickle deserialization executes arbitrary code from the file.
  2. Convert locally in a sandbox: `pip install safetensors` and use `safetensors.torch.save_file` on a state dict loaded with `torch.load(..., weights_only=True)` (refuses most code-execution payloads), or use Hugging Face's `convert.py` space/script.
  3. Pin the exact revision hash you converted from, and load only your converted safetensors artifact from then on.

info Pickle static analysis clean

Opcode-level parse of RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220911-79.pth, RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220912-169.pth, RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220913-279.pth, RWKV-4-Pile-7B-20220914-424.pth (no code executed) found only standard serialization globals (3 distinct, all torch/collections/numpy). Pickle remains an executable format — this verifies the current bytes, not future uploads; prefer a safetensors release.

Remediation guidance addresses the documented findings only. It is evidence-driven repair, not a safety certification of the model.
