What's the risk?

An unauthenticated attacker, remotely over the network, with no user interaction, can fully compromise the system — steal data, tamper with it and take it offline.

Deserialization of untrusted data in on-premises Microsoft SharePoint Server allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. Microsoft is aware that an exploit for CVE-2025-53770 exists in the wild. Microsoft is preparing and fully testing a comprehensive update to address this vulnerability. In the meantime, please make sure that the mitigation provided in this CVE documentation is in place so that you are protected from exploitation.

What to do

Generated by Wavense from the CVE record — an immediate mitigation and the permanent fix.

  1. !

    Mitigate now

    Restrict network access to SharePoint servers, particularly from untrusted external sources, and deploy a robust Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter malicious requests. Implement enhanced logging and real-time monitoring for unusual process execution or network activity originating from SharePoint servers.

  2. ✓

    Permanent fix

    Apply the comprehensive security update from Microsoft immediately upon its release, as it fully addresses this vulnerability. Continuously monitor Microsoft's official security guidance and advisories for specific patch details and installation instructions for all affected SharePoint Server versions.

Business impact

An unauthorized attacker can achieve remote code execution on affected on-premises SharePoint Servers over the network. This allows for complete system compromise, enabling data exfiltration, service disruption, or further network lateral movement, leading to severe business and data integrity consequences.
