CVE-2020-11982
When using CeleryExecutor, if an attack can connect to the broker (Redis, RabbitMQ) directly, it was possible to insert a malicious payload directly to the broker which could lead to a deserialization attack (and thus remote code execution) on the Worker.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.22%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

When using CeleryExecutor, if an attack can connect to the broker (Redis, RabbitMQ) directly, it was possible to insert a malicious payload directly to the broker which could lead to a deserialization attack (and thus remote code execution) on the Worker.
