First of all, run this command to check if pip is in a broken state:
pip3 --versionWhen pip is broken, the output will be similar to this:

To fix the broken pip, run these commands to remove the python3-pipapt`` package and install the latest pip from pypa.io :
sudo apt remove python3-pip wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.pysudo python3 get-pip.pyPlease reboot your system (or log out and log in again), then check if pip is working.
You should see a pip version number like this:
pip3 --versionpip 23.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/pip (python 3.8)It is also recommended to upgrade the pyopenssl package to avoid this issue in the future:
sudo pip3 install pyopenssl --upgradeIf you encounter the following issue when running the Filescan installation script:
ERROR: Failed building wheel for yara-pythonTo fix the the issue, run the following command to install yara-python library:
sudo pip3 install yara-python==4.2.3 --use-pep517
