Deserialization is the process of converting a stream of bytes back into a copy of the original object. However, if not properly handled, it can be exploited by attackers to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ameeba.com\/blog\/cve-2025-56216-sql-injection-vulnerability-in-phpgurukul-hospital-management-system-4-0\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"85956\">inject malicious payloads into the system<\/a>.<br \/>\nIn the case of CVE-2025-10035, an attacker with a validly forged license response signature can control the deserialization process. This control allows the attacker to inject arbitrary objects, which could potentially lead to command injection, enabling them to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ameeba.com\/blog\/cve-2025-0074-critical-remote-code-execution-vulnerability-in-sdp-discovery\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"83600\">execute unauthorized commands or code<\/a> on the system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"ameeb-872518039\" class=\"ameeb-content ameeb-entity-placement\"><div class=\"poptin-embedded\" data-id=\"f6b387694f681\"><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited. This could be a sample HTTP request to the License Servlet with a malicious payload:<\/p>\n<pre><code class=\"\" data-line=\"\">POST \/LicenseServlet HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/json\n{ &quot;forged_license_signature&quot;: &quot;valid_signature&quot;,\n&quot;malicious_object&quot;: &quot;{serialized malicious object}&quot; }<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>In this example, the attacker sends a POST request to the License Servlet with a forged license signature and a serialized malicious object.
