CVE-2022-2446 – WP Editor <= 1.2.9 - Authenticated (Admin+) PHAR Deserialization

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-2446

The WP Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to deserialization of untrusted input via the 'current_theme_root' parameter in versions up to, and including 1.2.9. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with administrative privileges to call files using a PHAR wrapper that will deserialize and call arbitrary PHP Objects that can be used to perform a variety of malicious actions granted a POP chain is also present. It also requires that the attacker is successful in uploading a file with the serialized payload. • https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3151053 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/f3555702-4427-4569-8fd6-f84113593e9d?source=cve • CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data •
