Descriptions

The WPtouch WordPress plugin before 4.3.45 unserialises the content of an imported settings file, which could lead to PHP object injections issues when an user import (intentionally or not) a malicious settings file and a suitable gadget chain is present on the blog.

El complemento WPtouch de WordPress anterior a 4.3.45 deserializa el contenido de un archivo de configuración importado, lo que podría provocar problemas de inyecciones de objetos PHP cuando un usuario importa (intencionalmente o no) un archivo de configuración malicioso y una cadena de gadgets adecuada está presente en el blog.

The WPtouch plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in versions up to, and including, 4.3.44 via deserialization of untrusted input when importing settings. This allows administrator-level attackers to inject a PHP Object. No POP chain is present in the vulnerable plugin. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code.
