      "value": "An issue was discovered in Quest KACE Desktop Authority before 11.2. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute remote code through a deserialization exploitation in the RadAsyncUpload function of ASP.NET AJAX. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability when the encryption keys are known (due to the presence of CVE-2017-11317, CVE-2017-11357, or other means). A default setting for the type whitelisting feature in more current versions of ASP.NET AJAX prevents exploitation."

Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes ejecutar c\u00f3digo remoto mediante una explotaci\u00f3n de deserializaci\u00f3n en la funci\u00f3n RadAsyncUpload de ASP.NET AJAX. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad cuando son conocidas las claves de cifrado (debido a la presencia de CVE-2017-11317, CVE-2017-11357 u otros medios). Una configuraci\u00f3n por defecto de la funcionalidad type whitelisting en versiones m\u00e1s actuales de ASP.NET AJAX previene una explotaci\u00f3n"
