GHSA-wf6j-7hvr-gr93: Hydra legacy target blacklist permits unsafe PyYAML loading

October 27, 2026

Hydra’s legacy target blacklist omits PyYAML’s unsafe loading surfaces. If an application passes attacker-controlled targets and arguments to instantiate(), a target such as yaml.unsafe_load can execute Python code through a config-controlled YAML stream containing Python object-construction tags.
