Findings

Scanned 2026-08-20 · published from a community scan.

medium Pickle-serialized weights, no safetensors

Weights ship only as pickle-based files (pytorch_model.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.

  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.

medium No license declared

The model card declares no license. You have no usage rights by default — treat as all-rights-reserved until the owner clarifies.

How to fix

Get a license from the owner or pick a licensed alternative — this is a legal gap, not a technical one.

  1. With no declared license you have no usage rights by default; treat the weights as all-rights-reserved.
  2. Open an issue or discussion on the repo asking the owner to declare a license, or use the licensed upstream/parent model instead.

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

Put this result in your workflow

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.
