What is CVE-2026-102739?

ESPectre, a Wi-Fi motion sensing platform for ESP32, suffers from a vulnerability where analysis tools load NPZ datasets with NumPy pickle support. By using malicious datasets, an attacker can execute arbitrary code as the maintainer when a documented analysis tool accesses the crafted field. This risk is mitigated in version 3.0.0-rc1, highlighting the importance of using updated software to prevent exploitation.
