sc-deserialization

Detect insecure deserialization by scanning codebases in Python, Java, PHP, .NET, Ruby, and Node.js to flag risky patterns across serialization formats. The process applies discovery patterns and cross-language verification to identify potential remote code execution risks.

Common insecure deserialization patterns include Python pickle and Java ObjectInputStream usage. Scanning for these specific data flows helps identify vulnerabilities that can lead to remote code execution, data tampering, or authentication bypass early in development.

Yes, you can scan PHP unserialize and .NET BinaryFormatter calls to identify insecure deserialization. The detection covers these specific formats alongside Ruby Marshal and Node.js serialization, applying risk scoring to reduce false positives and prioritize remediation.

Reduce false positives in YAML and XML deserialization vulnerability searches by applying cross-language verification and risk scoring. This approach validates flagged risky patterns and prioritizes remediation based on actual threat levels rather than just pattern matching.

Secure alternatives for Ruby Marshal and Node.js serialization vulnerabilities involve progressive hardening per ecosystem. The detection provides guidance for implementing safer data handling patterns to replace risky deserialization flows and prevent remote code execution.
