Findings
Scanned 2026-08-26 · published from a community scan.
medium Pickle-serialized weights, no safetensors
Weights ship only as pickle-based files (pytorch_model-00001-of-00004.bin, pytorch_model-00002-of-00004.bin, pytorch_model-00003-of-00004.bin, …). 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.
- Do not load the pickle files in-process — pickle deserialization executes arbitrary code from the file.
- 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.
- Pin the exact revision hash you converted from, and load only your converted safetensors artifact from then on.
medium Chat template ends turns with <end_of_turn>, which is not a configured stop token
The chat template terminates assistant turns with <end_of_turn>, but the effective EOS set (config.json ∪ generation_config.json = [1] → ["<eos>"]) never stops on it. Config-honoring runtimes generate past the terminator until the token budget is exhausted — runaway cost and self-continuing fake turns. Add <end_of_turn>'s id to generation_config.json's eos_token_id.
How to fixingot patch
Align the stop-token declarations — a pure metadata fix to `generation_config.json` (and `config.json`).
- Identify the token the chat template actually ends assistant turns with (e.g. `<|eot_id|>`, `<end_of_turn>`, `<|im_end|>`) and make sure its id is in `generation_config.json`'s `eos_token_id` list.
- Keep `config.json`'s `eos_token_id` consistent with (or a subset of) `generation_config.json`'s — runtimes differ in which file they read.
- For the pad-equals-EOS hazard: repoint `pad_token` at a dedicated padding token before fine-tuning; serving is unaffected.
- Until the repo is fixed, pass explicit stop tokens to your serving stack (e.g. vLLM `stop_token_ids`, llama.cpp `--override-kv tokenizer.ggml.eos_token_id`).
info Embedding-norm glitch scan clean
No undertrained tokens found: every non-special token's embedding norm is above 0.3× the vocabulary median (1.701). The glitch-token data-corruption class has no candidate surface in this model.
info Pickle static analysis clean
Opcode-level parse of pytorch_model-00001-of-00004.bin, pytorch_model-00002-of-00004.bin, pytorch_model-00003-of-00004.bin, pytorch_model-00004-of-00004.bin (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.
info Weights consistent with claimed parent unsloth/gemma-2-9b-it
Mean cosine similarity of 64 sampled token-embedding rows against unsloth/gemma-2-9b-it is 1.000 — the weights plausibly descend from the declared base (relation: unspecified).
Check every checkpoint before it ships
Use the web app, API, CLI, or CI gate to scan candidate checkpoints and catch model drift before deployment. Public-model scans publish to the open database; paid plans add the volume needed for continuous checks.
Fix it
Some findings are metadata-level and patchable — apply the fixes to your local copy (your weights never leave your machine):

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