CVE Database - Insecure Deserialization

Quick.CMS deserializes user-controlled data received over plaintext HTTP without ensuring integrity or authenticity. This allows attackers to tamper with serialized payloads in transit and inject malicious objects. Because deserialization is performed without proper validation or class restrictions, crafted payloads can trigger dangerous magic methods (e.g., __wakeup() and __destruct()) and leverage gadget chains, resulting in arbitrary code execution. Exploitation is triggered automatically when an administrator accesses the admin panel. When successfully exploited, this vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the server via manipulated serialized data transmitted over an unprotected channel. This issue was mitigated by limiting the communication to HTTPS in a patch for version 6.8 published on 14.05.2026, deployments without this patch remain vulnerable.

A vulnerability was found in Comma AI Openpilot 0.11. This issue affects the function pickle.load/pickle.loads of the file selfdrive/modeld/modeld.py of the component Pickle Module. The manipulation results in deserialization. The attack is only possible with local access. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Spring for GraphQL applications are vulnerable to Unsafe Deserialization when processing paginated GraphQL queries. An attacker can craft a malicious GraphQL request that can lead to Remote Code Execution when the application exposes a paginated (Connection) field and the classpath contains specific classes that can be leveraged during deserialization. Affected versions: Spring for GraphQL 2.0.0 through 2.0.3; 1.4.0 through 1.4.5; 1.3.0 through 1.3.8.

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.2.4, 10.0.7, 9.4.12, and 9.3.13, Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.3.2512.12, 10.2.2510.14, 10.1.2507.22, and 9.3.2411.132, and Splunk Secure Gateway versions below 3.10.6, 3.9.20, and 3.8.67, a low-privileged user that does not hold the 'admin' or 'power' Splunk roles could perform a Remote Code Execution (RCE) through the Splunk Secure Gateway app.<br><br>The Remote Code Execution is possible because of unsafe deserialization of App Key Value Store (KV Store) data through the ‘jsonpickle’ Python library, which reconstructs arbitrary Python objects from specially crafted JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) without adequate validation.

In Jenkins 2.567 and earlier, LTS 2.555.2 and earlier, it is possible for attackers to have Jenkins deserialize arbitrary types defined in Jenkins core or plugins from an attacker-controlled `config.xml` submission in a way that allows them to handle HTTP requests afterwards. This can be used to impersonate any user and send HTTP requests on their behalf, up to and including use of the Script Console to run arbitrary code, or to read arbitrary files from the Jenkins controller.

Ghidra before 12.1 contains an unsafe deserialization vulnerability in client-side Shared-Project RMI connection code that allows unauthenticated remote code execution. Attackers can craft a malicious project file with a ghidra:// URL that, when opened via File → Open Project, deserializes untrusted objects using a Jython 2.7.4 gadget chain to execute arbitrary commands.

Concrete CMS below 9.5.2 is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via unserialize() calls in the  in Permission, Cache, and Search components. An unauthenticated attacker may trigger arbitrary PHP object instantiation if a malicious serialized payload has been placed in the database. Thanks XananasX7 for reporting.

An attacker who intercepts and tampers with traffic between the client application and the API Gateway server could potentially deserialize arbitrary objects. This vulnerability could lead to broken security expectations or remote code execution.

JsonPulsarHeaderMapper matched type headers against trusted packages using a prefix check, meaning that trusting any package implicitly trusted all of its subpackages. Additionally, an empty trusted-packages configuration fell back to trusting all packages rather than applying a safe default allow-list. Affected versions: Spring for Apache Pulsar 2.0.0 through 2.0.5; 1.2.0 through 1.2.17; 1.1.0 through 1.1.17.

JsonKafkaHeaderMapper and the deprecated DefaultKafkaHeaderMapper matched type headers against trusted packages using a prefix check, meaning that trusting any package implicitly trusted all of its subpackages. Combined with Jackson's default bean deserialization, a producer could supply crafted header values that caused the consumer to deserialize arbitrary JDK types. Affected versions: Spring for Apache Kafka 4.0.0 through 4.0.5; 3.3.0 through 3.3.15; 3.2.0 through 3.2.13; 2.9.0 through 2.9.13; 2.8.0 through 2.8.11.

An attacker with write permissions to the database table managed by JdbcAssertingPartyMetadataRepository (saml2_asserting_party_metadata) may be able to store malicious serialized payloads in the columns containing the collection of verification or encryption credentials (verification_credentials and encryption_credentials, respectively). Affected versions: Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.

A vulnerability allowing remote code execution (RCE) on the Backup Server by an authenticated domain user.

Improper neutralization of input during web page generation ('cross-site scripting') in Microsoft Office SharePoint allows an authorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.

Deserialization of untrusted data in Microsoft Office SharePoint allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

Deserialization of untrusted data in Nuance PowerScribe allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

TYPO3's cache frontend (VariableFrontend) and persistent key-value store (Registry) deserialized PHP payloads without integrity validation or class restrictions. An attacker with write access to the underlying storage backend (cache store or sys_registry database table) could inject a crafted serialized payload to trigger PHP Object Injection, potentially exploiting a gadget chain to achieve Remote Code Execution or other high-impact effects. Exploiting this vulnerability requires direct local write access to the storage, such as the SQL database or file system. This issue affects TYPO3 CMS versions before 10.4.57, 11.0.0-11.5.51, 12.0.0-12.4.46, 13.0.0-13.4.31 and 14.0.0-14.3.3.

The Blocksy theme for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection leading to Remote Code Execution via the 'blocksy_meta' REST API field and the V200 database migration in versions up to and including 2.1.35. This is due to insufficient input sanitization in the blocksy_sanitize_post_meta_options() function, which only blocks values containing '<' or '>' and does not prevent serialized PHP object strings from being stored in post meta, combined with the SearchReplacer::run_recursively() function unconditionally deserializing all string values via @unserialize() during migration without restricting allowed classes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject a serialized Blocksy\RaiiPattern object into post meta that, when the V200 migration runs on an upgraded site, is deserialized and triggers RaiiPattern::__destruct(), which executes arbitrary PHP callables via call_user_func().

In an untrusted JMS environment, org.springframework.jms.support.converter.MappingJackson2MessageConverter and org.springframework.jms.support.converter.JacksonJsonMessageConverter allow arbitrary class instantiation, which can lead to unauthorized actions via gadget class deserialization. Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18; 6.1.0 through 6.1.27; 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.

The LearnPress – Backup & Migration Tool plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.4 via deserialization of untrusted input . This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present.

The Admin Columns plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection leading to Remote Code Execution in versions up to and including 7.0.18. This is due to the use of `unserialize()` without an `allowed_classes` restriction in the `IdsToCollection::get_ids_from_string()` function, which processes attacker-controlled post meta values without proper validation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to inject a serialized PHP object into a post's custom meta field and trigger arbitrary code execution by exploiting a bundled POP gadget chain, resulting in remote code execution as the web server user.

Seagull Software BarTender 2021 R1 through 12.0.1 contains an insecure deserialization vulnerability that allows low-privileged local users to escalate privileges. The DataServiceSingleton .NET Remoting endpoint is bound to localhost on TCP port 7375 via BtSystem.Service.exe, limiting the attack surface to local access only. The endpoint is configured with BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider and TypeFilterLevel set to Full. A low-privileged local attacker can send YSoSerial.NET-generated BinaryFormatter payloads to the localhost-bound endpoint to achieve code execution as NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM.

Seagull Software BarTender 2010, 2016, and 2019 contain an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the .NET Remoting service exposed on TCP port 7375 via BtSystem.Service.exe. The service registers an unauthenticated singleton endpoint — BarTenderSystem for BarTender 2016 <= R9, and DataServiceSingleton for BarTender 2019 <= R10 — configured with BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider and TypeFilterLevel set to Full. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit .NET Remoting object unmarshalling to read or write arbitrary files on the server using the .NET WebClient class, or coerce NTLMv2 authentication by supplying a UNC path to an attacker-controlled server, enabling sensitive credential disclosure, remote code execution, or lateral movement depending on service account privileges and network environment. The service runs in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data in the Java replace-resolve path in Apache Fory fory-core Java SDK before 1.1.0 on Java/JVM platforms allows a remote attacker to bypass class registration, TypeChecker, and DisallowedList checks and invoke classpath-present readResolve/readExternal hooks via crafted Fory serialized data. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.1.0 or later, which fixes this issue.

Concrete CMS below 9.5.2 is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via unserialize() calls in the Workflow, Form block, and File/Set components that lack the allowed_classes restriction. An unauthenticated attacker may trigger arbitrary PHP object instantiation if a malicious serialized payload has been placed in the database. Thanks XananasX7 and Sanjorn Keeratirungsan (dizconnect) for both independently reporting. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 8.4 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N.

ZDRES-232: resolveProxyClass Not Overridden - acceptMatchers Filter Bypass via java.lang.reflect.Proxy Assessment: Fully addressed. When the serialised stream contains a TC_PROXYCLASSDESC (the marker for a java.lang.reflect.Proxy ), JDK’s ObjectInputStream.readProxyDesc() is dispatched. JDK then calls the default ObjectInputStream.resolveProxyClass(interfaces) implementation, which performs Class.forName(intf, false, latestUserDefinedLoader()) for EACH interface name and constructs the proxy class — bypassing the accepted classes list . ZDRES-233: Class.forName(name, initialize=true, classLoader) in readClassDescriptor Triggers Static Initialiser of Allow-Listed Classes Assessment: Fully addressed. For ANY class on the allow-list, deserialising a stream that names it triggers the class’s (static initialiser) BEFORE any instance is constructed. This means an attacker who supplies a class name on the allow-list (e.g., the developer wrote accept(“com.myapp.*") , attacker supplies com.myapp.SomeClass ) causes <clinit> of SomeClass — and many real-world classes have side-effecting static initialisers Both issues have been fixed.

React Router is a router for React. In versions 7.0.0 through 7.14.1, when using Framework Mode, a combination of steps could potentially allow unauthorized remote code execution (RCE) through external requests. This attack requires the application code to have an existing prototype pollution vulnerability, which can then be leveraged in a 2-step attack where the second step triggers unauthorized RCE on the remote server. This does not impact applications using Declarative Mode (`<BrowserRouter>`) or Data Mode (`createBrowserRouter/<RouterProvider>`). This is patched in version 7.14.2.

AIOHTTP is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. Prior to version 3.14.0, using ``CookieJar.load()`` with untrusted input may allow arbitrary code execution. Most applications using this function will be doing so with the user's own data, so this is unlikely to affect many applications. Version 3.14.0 patches the issue. If an application does allow attacker controlled files to be loaded, a workaround on older releases would be to sanitize the files before loading.

NVIDIA NVTabular contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause improper deserialization of untrusted data. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, data tampering, and information disclosure.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Elated-Themes Töbel allows Object Injection. This issue affects Töbel: from n/a through 1.8.1.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Elated-Themes Aperitif allows Object Injection. This issue affects Aperitif: from n/a through 1.6.

A weakness has been identified in FoundationAgents MetaGPT up to 0.8.2. This affects the function Message.check_instruct_content of the file metagpt/schema.py. Executing a manipulation of the argument mapping can lead to deserialization. The attack is restricted to local execution. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is affected by an improper validation of user-supplied data during deserialization using the SAML Web Single Sign-On component. This could result in remote code execution via a crafted HTTP request when combined with a suitable gadget chain.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 9.0, and 8.5 is vulnerable to potential remote code execution due to deserialization of untrusted data via JAX-WS endpoints with WS-Security.

AI Tensor Engine for ROCm (AITER) through 0.1.14 contains an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the MessageQueue.recv() function within shm_broadcast.py that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a malicious pickle payload to a ZMQ SUB socket with no authentication, HMAC, or format validation. Attackers who can reach the writer XPUB endpoint on the cluster network or supply a forged Handle with an attacker-controlled remote_subscribe_addr can deliver a crafted pickle payload that executes arbitrary code simultaneously as the inference worker process on every remote reader worker.

An issue in ESA AnomalyMatch before 1.3.1 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted model checkpoint files. The affected components load model files from session directories using torch.load() with unrestricted deserialization.

Deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in QOS.CH Sarl logback logback-core (HardenedObjectInputStream (logback-core) modules) allows Object Injection, albeit heavily restricted. More precisely, an attacker able to influence serialized data sent to SimpleSocketServer or SimpleSSLSocketServer can instantiate Proxy objects. Although deserialization is heavily restricted by HardenedObjectInputStream and no practical way to achieve remote code execution or significant privilege escalation has been identified, this issue constitutes a bypass of the intended security restrictions. This issue affects logback: through 1.5.33 inclusive.

A Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability affecting Teamwork Cloud from No Magic Release 2022x through No Magic Release 2026x and Magic Collaboration Studio from CATIA Magic Release 2022x through CATIA Magic Release 2026x could lead to an unauthenticated remote code execution.

Apache Airflow's scheduler-side deadline-reference decoder (`SerializedCustomReference.deserialize_reference`) imported and dispatched arbitrary class paths drawn from DAG-author-controlled serialized state without an allowlist or plugin-registry gate. A DAG author whose code reaches the scheduler — the default on single-host deployments where the DAG bundle is importable from the scheduler process — could embed a custom `DeadlineReference` whose serialized form named an attacker-controlled module path, causing the scheduler to `import_string(...)` and instantiate that class with a live SQLAlchemy session attached. Affects deployments where DAG-author code is less trusted than the scheduler process. Users are advised to upgrade to `apache-airflow` 3.2.2 or later.

A bug in Apache Airflow's XCom PATCH endpoint `PATCH /api/v2/xcomEntries/{key}` allowed an authenticated UI/API user with XCom write permission on a Dag to set XCom entries under reserved key names (e.g. `return_value`) that the matching POST endpoint already validated against `FORBIDDEN_XCOM_KEYS`. The endpoint also accepted serialized payload shapes the triggerer's deserializer treats as code; combined, this allowed RCE on the triggerer when the affected task next deferred. Affects deployments where untrusted users have XCom write permission on Dags that defer to the triggerer. This is a fix-bypass of CVE-2026-33858: PR #64148 added the `FORBIDDEN_XCOM_KEYS` validator only on the POST/set path; the PATCH path was not covered. Users who already upgraded for CVE-2026-33858 should additionally upgrade to `apache-airflow` 3.2.2 or later to cover the PATCH-path bypass.

manga-image-translator contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the shared API server mode due to unsafe deserialization of untrusted pickle data in the share.py module, where the /execute/{method_name} and /simple_execute/{method_name} endpoints deserialize attacker-controlled HTTP request bodies using pickle.loads(). A remote attacker can supply a crafted pickle payload to these endpoints to execute arbitrary code in the server process, resulting in full container compromise when running in the default Docker deployment as root.

The WooCommerce Infinite Scroll and Ajax Pagination plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 1.8 via the 'settings' parameter in the 'import_settings' function. This is due to deserialization of untrusted data supplied via the import configuration feature without capability checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No POP chain is present within the vulnerable plugin itself, but if a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow an attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code.

Deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in QOS.CH Sarl logback logback-core (HardenedObjectInputStream (logback-core) modules) allows Object Injection albeit heavily restricted. More precisely, an attacker able to influence serialized data sent to SimpleSocketServer or SimpleSSLSocketServer can instantiate objects from classes in the java.lang and java.util packages that are not explicitly blocked. Although deserialization is heavily restricted by HardenedObjectInputStream and no practical way to achieve remote code execution or significant privilege escalation has been identified, this issue constitutes a bypass of the intended security restrictions. This issue affects logback: through 1.5.32 inclusive.

An issue in SMSGate sms-core<=2.1.13.6 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the Cmpp7FDeliverRequestMessageCodec.java component

RELATE is a web-based courseware package. Prior to commit d66ba5659b459bf1ba56b7109b5f9ecf197cbefb, RELATE LMS configures its Celery workers to accept and deserialize untrusted 'pickle' data. An attacker who can reach the message broker can execute arbitrary commands on the host server. Combined with missing network isolation in the code execution sandbox, this allows an authenticated student to achieve full Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the host system. Commit d66ba5659b459bf1ba56b7109b5f9ecf197cbefb fixes the issue.

LangSmith Client SDKs provide SDK's for interacting with the LangSmith platform. Prior to LangSmith SDK Python 0.8.0 and JS/TS 0.6.0, the LangSmith SDK's prompt pull methods (pull_prompt / pull_prompt_commit in Python, pullPrompt / pullPromptCommit in JS/TS) fetch and deserialize prompt manifests from the LangSmith Hub. These manifests may contain serialized LangChain objects and model configuration that affect runtime behavior. When pulling a public prompt by owner/name identifier, the manifest content is controlled by an external party, but prior versions of the SDK did not distinguish this from pulling a prompt within the caller's own organization. This vulnerability is fixed in LangSmith SDK Python 0.8.0 and JS/TS 0.6.0.

Jenkins Active Directory Plugin 2.41 and earlier deserializes data from LDAP referrals without validation.

Jenkins LDAP Plugin 807.v7d7de30930cf and earlier deserializes data from LDAP referrals without validation.

LangChain is a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications. Prior to 0.3.85 and 1.3.3, LangChain contains older runtime code paths that deserialize run inputs, run outputs, or other application-controlled payloads using overly broad object allowlists. These paths may call load() with allowed_objects="all". This does not enable arbitrary Python object deserialization, but it does allow any trusted LangChain-serializable object to be revived, which is broader than these runtime paths require. As a result, attacker-supplied LangChain serialized constructor dictionaries may cause trusted runtime paths to instantiate classes with untrusted constructor arguments. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.3.85 and 1.3.3.
