Impact
The vulnerability is unauthenticated PHP Object Injection (CWE-502) in the Integration for Salesforce and Contact Form 7 plugin version 1.4.3 or earlier. Lack of proper authentication and input sanitization allows an attacker to supply malicious serialized data that the plugin processes unchecked, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution and full compromise of the affected WordPress site.
Affected Systems
WordPress sites running the CRM Perks Integration for Salesforce and Contact Form 7 plugin version 1.4.3 or earlier are vulnerable. The plugin supports Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, Formidable, and Ninja Forms. No specific operating system or PHP version is stated, but any WordPress environment with these plugin versions is at risk.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 9.8 indicates a critical severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low exploitation probability at present. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The likely attack vector is through sending a crafted HTTP request containing serialized PHP objects to the plugin’s endpoint, bypassing authentication and triggering unserialize, which can lead to remote code execution. A patch is available in version 1.4.4, which removes this flaw.
