But while Oracle is addressing the issue in Java, serialization also affects other programming environments like .NET, Ruby, and others, where the issue remains dormant.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
