AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an unauthenticated PHP Object Injection that allows an attacker to instantiate arbitrary PHP objects in the target system. If exploited, the attacker can execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the web server, enabling full system compromise. The weakness is identified as CWE-502.

Affected Systems

All installations of the ThemeREX:Alliance WordPress theme at or below version 3.11 are affected. Deployments using this theme on WordPress sites are at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The recorded CVSS score is 9.8, indicating catastrophic severity. EPSS data is unavailable, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The flaw is unauthenticated, so an attacker can trigger it via crafted input sent over the web interface, likely through a HTTP request that targets the theme’s PHP scripts.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the ThemeREX:Alliance theme to a version newer than 3.11, applying the vendor’s fix that removes vulnerable code paths.
  • If immediate upgrade is not feasible, switch to a safe default WordPress theme or disable the Alliance theme to eliminate the attack vector until a patch is applied.
  • Ensure that the web server and PHP are running the latest security‑updated versions, as newer releases may mitigate indirect exploitation paths.
