Summary

datamodel-code-generator generates Pydantic v2 models, dataclasses, TypedDict, and msgspec.Struct from OpenAPI, JSON Schema, GraphQL, Avro, Protobuf, and raw JSON, YAML, or CSV. From 0.9.1 until 0.61.0, datamodel-code-generator silently dereferences attacker-controlled JSON Schema $ref HTTP or HTTPS URLs in src/datamodel_code_generator/parser/jsonschema.py through _get_ref_body, and the --allow-remote-refs gate can warn instead of blocking, allowing server-side request forgery through src/datamodel_code_generator/http.py. This issue is fixed in version 0.61.0.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of datamodel-code-generator/datamodel-code-generator published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
