CVE-2016-0376

29
FAUCET Score

CVE-2016-0376 is a critical vulnerability affecting multiple versions of IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, as well as products from Novell and Red Hat that utilize it. The flaw lies in the com.ibm.rmi.io.SunSerializableFactory class, which improperly deserializes classes, allowing remote attackers to bypass sandbox protections. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 8.1) has a network attack vector, high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, but requires high attack complexity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion, suggesting it is not widely targeted.
