AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a PHP Object Injection flaw caused by deserialization of untrusted data. If an attacker can supply crafted data to the WordPress VEDA theme, they may instantiate arbitrary objects, potentially leading to execution of malicious code or other severe consequences on the affected system.

Affected Systems

DesignThemes VEDA WordPress theme versions up to and including 4.2 are affected. Users deploying these versions on their sites are at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 classifies this issue as high severity. The EPSS score is below 1% indicating a very low probability of exploitation in current open‑source deployments, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Nonetheless, the potential for remote code execution makes immediate remediation critical once a version higher than 4.2 becomes available.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the VEDA theme to a version newer than 4.2, applying any vendor releases that address the deserialization flaw.
  • If an update cannot be applied immediately, remove or deactivate the VEDA theme from the WordPress installation to eliminate the attack surface.
  • Verify that no other plugins or themes contain similar deserialization vulnerabilities and keep all components up to date.
