Is this vulnerability a remote code execution issue in Fickling itself?

Not directly. The vulnerability is about

: Fickling may fail to recognize some unsafe deserialization constructs, which can indirectly contribute to RCE in applications that incorrectly trust its analysis.

What kind of access does an attacker need to exploit this?

An attacker needs the ability to influence or provide pickle payloads that will be analyzed by Fickling and later deserialized by a target application or system that trusts Fickling's assessments.
