Detection & mitigation playbook

Vendor / appliance
  1. Detect

    Inventory every microsoft sharepoint server deployment and check each version against the affected-products list above.

  2. Fix

    Apply the microsoft sharepoint server security patch or hotfix for CVE-2026-45484 on the affected version, following the vendor advisory for your exact build.

  3. Workarounds

    Do not deserialise data from untrusted sources: where the format allows it, restrict deserialisation to an explicit allowlist of expected types, and prefer a data-only format (JSON, Protobuf) over one that can reconstruct arbitrary objects until you can upgrade. Alongside that, restrict the management interface to trusted networks and apply the vendor's recommended configuration mitigations.
