Affected applications do not properly restrict the .NET BinaryFormatter when deserializing hardware configuration profiles. This could allow an attacker to cause a type confusion and execute arbitrary code within the affected application. This is the same issue that exists for .NET BinaryFormatter https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/code-quality/ca2300.
