CA2301: Do not call BinaryFormatter.Deserialize without first setting BinaryFormatter.Binder (code analysis) - .NET

CA2301: Do not call BinaryFormatter.Deserialize without first setting BinaryFormatter.Binder

Property Value Rule ID CA2301 Title Do not call BinaryFormatter.Deserialize without first setting BinaryFormatter.Binder Category Security Fix is breaking or non-breaking Non-breaking Enabled by default in .NET 9 No Cause

A System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter deserialization method was called or referenced without the Binder property set.

By default, this rule analyzes the entire codebase, but this is configurable.

Rule description

Insecure deserializers are vulnerable when deserializing untrusted data. An attacker could modify the serialized data to include unexpected types to inject objects with malicious side effects. An attack against an insecure deserializer could, for example, execute commands on the underlying operating system, communicate over the network, or delete files.

This rule finds System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter deserialization method calls or references, when BinaryFormatter doesn't have its Binder set. If you want to disallow any deserialization with BinaryFormatter regardless of the Binder property, disable this rule and CA2302, and enable rule CA2300.

How to fix violations When to suppress warnings

BinaryFormatter is insecure and can't be made secure.

Configure code to analyze

Use the following options to configure which parts of your codebase to run this rule on.

You can configure these options for just this rule, for all rules they apply to, or for all rules in this category (Security) that they apply to. For more information, see Code quality rule configuration options.

Exclude specific symbols

You can exclude specific symbols, such as types and methods, from analysis by setting the excluded_symbol_names option. For example, to specify that the rule should not run on any code within types named MyType, add the following key-value pair to an .editorconfig file in your project:

dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType

Note

Replace the XXXX part of CAXXXX with the ID of the applicable rule.

Allowed symbol name formats in the option value (separated by |):

Examples:

Option Value Summary dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType Matches all symbols named MyType. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType1|MyType2 Matches all symbols named either MyType1 or MyType2. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = M:NS.MyType.MyMethod(ParamType) Matches specific method MyMethod with the specified fully qualified signature. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = M:NS1.MyType1.MyMethod1(ParamType)|M:NS2.MyType2.MyMethod2(ParamType) Matches specific methods MyMethod1 and MyMethod2 with the respective fully qualified signatures. Exclude specific types and their derived types

You can exclude specific types and their derived types from analysis by setting the excluded_type_names_with_derived_types option. For example, to specify that the rule should not run on any methods within types named MyType and their derived types, add the following key-value pair to an .editorconfig file in your project:

dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType

Note

Replace the XXXX part of CAXXXX with the ID of the applicable rule.

Allowed symbol name formats in the option value (separated by |):

Examples:

Option value Summary dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType Matches all types named MyType and all of their derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType1|MyType2 Matches all types named either MyType1 or MyType2 and all of their derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = M:NS.MyType Matches specific type MyType with given fully qualified name and all of its derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = M:NS1.MyType1|M:NS2.MyType2 Matches specific types MyType1 and MyType2 with the respective fully qualified names, and all of their derived types.
