Hi All,

I'm mailing here for the first time and I am unaware of any rules for
mailing here. If there is any mistake please let me know. Below is my
question

JEP 290  <https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/290>solves the problem of
deserialization vulnerabilities except some collection classes which
includes TreeMap and LinkedList.

Can we have any solution or any work around to counter that?

In our RMI interface we are accepting Objects which may have TreeMap and
since there's no check on the size of treemap it is vulnerable to DDos
Attack. We have solution for ArrayList, Hashmap etc, Can we have something
similar for TreeMap and LinkedList as well?


Regards,

Kumar Gaurav
