CVE-2016-1000027: Deserialization of Untrusted Data

May 24, 2022 (updated January 11, 2023)

Pivotal Spring Framework through 6.0.0 suffers from a potential remote code execution (RCE) issue if used for Java deserialization of untrusted data. Depending on how the library is implemented within a product, this issue may or not occur, and authentication may be required. NOTE: the vendor’s position is that untrusted data is not an intended use case. The product’s behavior will not be changed because some users rely on deserialization of trusted data.
