CVE-2026-10532 PUBLISHED

Logback deserialization whitelist bypass for Proxy objects

Assigner: NCSC.ch
Reserved: 01.06.2026 Published: 01.06.2026 Updated: 01.06.2026

Deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in QOS.CH Sarl logback logback-core (HardenedObjectInputStream (logback-core) modules) allows Object Injection, albeit heavily restricted.

More precisely, an attacker able to influence serialized data sent to SimpleSocketServer or SimpleSSLSocketServer can instantiate Proxy objects.

Although deserialization is heavily restricted by HardenedObjectInputStream and no practical way to achieve remote code execution or significant privilege escalation has been identified, this issue constitutes a bypass of the intended security restrictions.

This issue affects logback: through 1.5.33 inclusive.

Metrics

CVSS Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:P/RE:M/U:Green
CVSS Score: 2.9

Product Status

Vendor QOS.CH Sarl
Product logback
Versions Default: unaffected
  • affected from 0 to 1.5.33 (incl.)
  • Version 1.5.34 is unaffected

Affected Configurations

SimpleSocketServer or SimpleSSLSockerServer must be running on the target host and reachable by the attacker.

Exploits

Given that HardenedObjectInputStream used by SimpleSocketServer and SimpleSSLSockerServer already heavily restricts the set of deserializable classes, it is unlikely that the attacker can escalate the vulnerability to gain control of the target host.

Solutions

Upgrade to logback version 1.5.34.
