Rule ID	CA2330
Title	Ensure that JsonSerializer has a secure configuration when deserializing
Category	Security
Fix is breaking or non-breaking	Non-breaking
Enabled by default in .NET 8	No

Cause

This rule fires when both of the following conditions might be true for a Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer instance that's passed to a deserialization method or initialized as a field or property:

The TypeNameHandling property is a value other than None.
The SerializationBinder property is null.

This rule is similar to CA2329, but in this case, analysis can't definitively determine if the serializer is configured insecurely.

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 Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer instances that might be configured to deserialize types specified from input, but may not be configured to restrict deserialized types with a Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.ISerializationBinder. If you want to disallow deserialization of types specified from input completely, disable rules CA2327, CA2328, CA2329, and CA2330, and enable rule CA2326 instead.

How to fix violations

Use TypeNameHandling's None value, if possible.
Make the serialized data tamper-proof. After serialization, cryptographically sign the serialized data. Before deserialization, validate the cryptographic signature. Protect the cryptographic key from being disclosed and design for key rotations.
Restrict deserialized types. Implement a custom Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.ISerializationBinder. Before deserializing with Json.NET, ensure your custom ISerializationBinder is specified in the Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer.SerializationBinder property. In the overridden Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.ISerializationBinder.BindToType method, if the type is unexpected, return null or throw an exception to stop deserialization.

When to suppress warnings

It's safe to suppress a warning from this rule if:

You know the input is trusted. Consider that your application's trust boundary and data flows may change over time.
You've taken one of the precautions in How to fix violations.
You know that the Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer.SerializationBinder property is always set when TypeNameHandling property is a value other than None.

Suppress a warning

If you just want to suppress a single violation, add preprocessor directives to your source file to disable and then re-enable the rule.

#pragma warning disable CA2330
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore CA2330

To disable the rule for a file, folder, or project, set its severity to none in the configuration file.

[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.CA2330.severity = none

For more information, see How to suppress code analysis warnings.

Configure code to analyze

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

Exclude specific symbols
Exclude specific types and their derived types

You can configure these options for just this rule, for all rules it applies to, or for all rules in this category (Security) that it applies 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. 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

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

Symbol name only (includes all symbols with the name, regardless of the containing type or namespace).
Fully qualified names in the symbol's documentation ID format. Each symbol name requires a symbol-kind prefix, such as M: for methods, T: for types, and N: for namespaces.
.ctor for constructors and .cctor for static constructors.

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. 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

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

Type name only (includes all types with the name, regardless of the containing type or namespace).
Fully qualified names in the symbol's documentation ID format, with an optional T: prefix.

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.
