AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in WordPress Gamic theme versions 1.19 and earlier. This flaw, identified as CWE-502, allows an attacker to deserialize crafted objects without proper validation, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution, data tampering, or defacement. The unrestricted data flow to PHP's unserialize function means that any user can trigger the injection by submitting specially crafted input.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are installations of the Gamic theme by ThemeREX running version 1.19 or earlier. The exact patch level is unknown, and no version constraints beyond the ≤1.19 boundary are provided. Users running any of these legacy themes should evaluate their environment immediately.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.8 classifies this flaw as critical, and though no EPSS score is available, the absence from KEV does not reduce its danger; attackers can exploit the flaw via unauthenticated HTTP requests targeting the theme's input handlers. The likely attack vector is through the web interface, where an attacker can send malicious payloads to the unserialize logic. Prompt action is warranted due to the high severity and ease of exploitation.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Gamic theme to the latest version that removes the PHP Object Injection vulnerability.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, deactivate the Gamic theme and switch to a maintained alternative to eliminate the exposure.
  • As a temporary countermeasure, use a web application firewall or security plugin to block requests containing serialized data or to filter out the unserialize() function usage by the theme.
