CVE-2023-28310

Authenticated remote code execution

Published Jun 14, 2023 · Updated Feb 28, 2025

Deserialization of untrusted data in Microsoft Exchange Server allows remote authenticated users to execute code over an adjacent network. Microsoft identifies CWE-502 but does not disclose the affected component, deserialization entry point, or unsafe object-processing operation. Exploitation requires low-privileged authentication and adjacent-network reachability, and successful exploitation runs attacker-controlled code on the server.
