Severity: critical

Affected versions:

- PyArrow 0.14.0 through 14.0.0
- PyArrow 0.14.0 through 14.0.0

Description:

Deserialization of untrusted data in IPC and Parquet readers in PyArrow 
versions 0.14.0 to 14.0.0 allows arbitrary code execution. An application is 
vulnerable if it reads Arrow IPC, Feather or Parquet data from untrusted 
sources (for example user-supplied input files).

This vulnerability only affects PyArrow, not other Apache Arrow implementations 
or bindings.

It is recommended that users of PyArrow upgrade to 14.0.1. Similarly, it is 
recommended that downstream libraries upgrade their dependency requirements to 
PyArrow 14.0.1 or later. PyPI packages are already available, and we hope that 
conda-forge packages will be available soon.

If it is not possible to upgrade, we provide a separate package 
`pyarrow-hotfix` that disables the vulnerability on older PyArrow versions. See 
 https://pypi.org/project/pyarrow-hotfix/  for instructions.
