In short

The ajaxpro.2 package can be tricked into processing malicious data that deserializes into dangerous .NET code, allowing attackers to execute commands on the server.

Technical detail

CWE-502 vulnerability in ajaxpro.2 allows unauthenticated remote code execution through unsafe deserialization of untrusted .NET objects. The attack vector is network-based via crafted serialized payloads; no authentication is required, and successful exploitation results in complete system compromise at the privilege level of the application.

Summary generated and translated by AI from the official description.
All versions of package ajaxpro.2 are vulnerable to Deserialization of Untrusted Data due to the possibility of deserialization of arbitrary .NET classes, which can be abused to gain remote code execution.
