The JSFViewState.decode() method base64-decodes the ViewState value and passes it directly to ObjectInputStream.readObject() without a deserialization filter, allowlist, or type restriction, causing the malicious object to be deserialized within the ZAP JVM when the Desktop UI renders the ViewState panel.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":8.7},"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":["CWE-502"],"references":["https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-extensions/commit/ac6c3f94d38505bc0facea286a4d3728044c6e5c","https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-extensions/pull/7481","https://github.com/zaproxy/zap-extensions/releases/tag/viewstate-v4","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/zap-viewstate-add-on-insecure-deserialization-via-jsfviewstate-decode","https://www.zaproxy.org/blog/2026-06-24-java-deserialization-vulnerability-in-zap-viewstate-addon/"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-25T23:44:33.281319194+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-57527","score":0.00682,"percentile":0.52209,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
