Hello,

I'm not quite sure how to fix this issue. From what I can tell from a
few quick tests, your fix seems to work, but the pickle documentation
itself states:
> Never unpickle data received from an untrusted or unauthenticated source. 

So maybe the best thing to do is to disable the pickle loader completely.

What do you think?

Regards,
Michael
