CVE-2026-55415: datamodel-code-generator vulnerable to code injection via `x-python-import` / `customTypePath` in generated import statements

July 28, 2026

A malicious input schema (OpenAPI / JSON Schema) can execute arbitrary Python code on the machine that imports the generated model. The x-python-import and customTypePath schema extensions flow, unsanitized, into the import statements datamodel-code-generator emits. A newline embedded in the extension value breaks out of the from … import … line and injects an attacker-controlled statement at module scope, which runs at import time. This is an unauthenticated, schema-content–driven remote code execution against any consumer of the generated code (e.g. arbitrary file read,the PoC exfiltrates /etc/passwd). It survives the v0.61.0 security release that fixed the related x-python-type, default_factory, GraphQL-union-description, and validators sinks those fixes did not cover this sibling path.
