Python · Pip · CVE-2025-32800
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Conda-build versions prior to 25.3.0
**Description**
The issue concerns a dependency injection vulnerability. Conda-build lists conda-index as a Python dependency in its pyproject.toml file. Since conda-index is not published in PyPI, an attacker could claim this namespace, upload malicious code, and exploit pip install commands by injecting the malicious dependency.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 25.3.0, update to version 25.3.0 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider using the --no-deps option for pip install commands when installing the project from the repository.
