Serialization is the process of saving an object's state to a sequence of bytes; deserialization is the process of rebuilding those bytes into a live object. The Java Serialization API provides a ...

The Ruby programming language is impacted by a similar "deserialization issue" that has affected and wreaked havoc in the Java ecosystem in 2016; an issue that later also proved to be a problem ...

Last month, Oracle's chief architect, Mark Reinhold, said during a conference Q&A that one of Oracle's long-term goals is to change the way Java handles object serialization. In fact, he called the ...

During deserialization of a serialized object, the Java serialization mechanism computes the suid based on the evolved class, yielding a value of 2, which differs from the suid stored in the ...

In programming languages, serialization is the process of converting data to a binary format for storing it or for sending it over the network. Deserialization is the reverse of that process.

PayPal has fixed a serious vulnerability in its back-end management system that could have allowed attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server and potentially install a backdoor.

The Java Apocalypse of 2015 and 2016. Attacks via deserialization operations have been known since 2011, but they became everyone's problem in early 2015 when two researchers — Chris Frohoff and ...

Serialization is the process of saving an object’s state to a sequence of bytes; deserialization is the process of rebuilding those bytes into a live object. The Java Serialization API provides ...

"Java's native serialization is not the only flawed serialization technology. XML and JSON deserialization vulnerabilities exist and are real threats to enterprises. In the recent months, attackers ...
