Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Restlet versions prior to 2.1.4
Description
The default configuration of the ObjectRepresentation class deserializes objects from untrusted sources using the Java XMLDecoder, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code via crafted XML.
