CVE-2026-52751 is an unsafe deserialization vulnerability affecting Ghidra versions prior to 12.1. This flaw is located in the client-side Shared-Project RMI connection code. The vulnerability allows for unauthenticated remote code execution. Attackers can exploit this by creating a specially crafted malicious project file that includes a `ghidra://` URL. When a user opens this file through the "File → Open Project" option, the system deserializes untrusted objects using a Jython 2.7.4 gadget chain, which can then execute arbitrary commands.
