Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Property Value
Language csharp
Severity medium
CWE CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data
OWASP A08:2017 - Insecure Deserialization
Confidence Level Medium
Impact Level High
Likelihood Level Low

Description

Using the LosFormatter class for deserializing data is insecure because it can execute malicious code if untrusted or manipulated input is processed. Even if you trust the data source, LosFormatter cannot be made safe and should not be used.

Impact

If exploited, an attacker could supply crafted input that allows them to execute arbitrary code on your server, potentially leading to data theft, system compromise, or a full takeover of the application. This poses significant risks to both the application's integrity and the organization's security.
