A CWE 502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability exists that could allow code to be remotely executed on the server when unsafely deserialized data is posted to the web server. Affected Products: Data Center Expert (Versions prior to V7.9.0)
Weakness
The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.
Affected Software
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Data_center_expert | Schneider-electric | * | 7.9.0 (excluding) |
Potential Mitigations
- Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
- An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
