AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a PHP Object Injection flaw in the Essential Real Estate WordPress plugin up to version 5.3.3. It allows an attacker to craft a serialized string that, when processed by the plugin, triggers the instantiation of arbitrary objects. This leads to remote code execution or other dangerous behaviors over the web, as reflected in the CWE-502 classification.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the g5theme Essential Real Estate plugin version 5.3.3 or earlier are affected. No other version or product details are provided.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity, and the EPSS score is not available, but the lack of KEV listing suggests no actively exploited instances are publicly known at this time. The attack vector is likely remote via crafted HTTP requests that provide a serialized payload to the vulnerable plugin. An attacker would need network access to the site and the ability to upload or simulate input that reaches the insecure unserialize point.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Essential Real Estate plugin to the latest version (5.3.4 or newer) to eliminate the PHP Object Injection flaw.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, remove or disable the plugin to prevent any further exploitation.
  • Add firewall or application‑level rules to block unexpected POST or GET requests containing serialized payloads to the plugin's endpoints, providing temporary protection until a patch can be applied.
