# ModelScan Bypass PoC — gc.disable
Security research for responsible disclosure via Huntr MFV program.
## Vulnerability
`gc.disable` is not in modelscan's `unsafe_globals` blocklist.
modelscan reports "No issues found" but loading triggers disables Python garbage collector — memory leak DoS, eventual OOM crash.
## Impact: MEDIUM
## Reproduction
```bash
pip install modelscan
modelscan scan -p bypass_poc.pkl
# Output: "No issues found!"
```
