CVE-2023-52225

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Tagbox Tagbox – UGC Galleries, Social Media Widgets, User Reviews & Analytics.This issue affects Tagbox – UGC Galleries, Social Media Widgets, User Reviews & Analytics: from n/a through 3.1.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

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.
