Severity critical
CWE CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data
OWASP A08:2017 - Insecure Deserialization
Confidence Level High
Impact Level High
Likelihood Level High

Description

User-supplied data is being deserialized using functions from insecure libraries like 'node-serialize' or 'serialize-to-js'. This allows attackers to send specially crafted input that can execute malicious code when processed.

Impact

If exploited, an attacker could run arbitrary code on your server, potentially leading to full system compromise, data theft, or service disruption. This can result in severe security breaches and loss of trust in your application.
