FINDINGS ░▒▓

criticaleval() usage detectedeval() executes arbitrary code and is commonly used in malware to run obfuscated payloads fetched from remote servers.examples/pycaffe/layers/pascal_multilabel_datalayers.py

        # params is a python dictionary with layer parameters.
        params = eval(self.param_str)

        # Check the parameters for validity.
