Descriptions

The String locator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.6 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'recursive_unserialize_replace' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software. 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. An administrator must perform a search and replace action to trigger the exploit.

El complemento String locator para WordPress es vulnerable a la inyección de objetos PHP en todas las versiones hasta la 2.6.6 incluida, a través de la deserialización de entradas no confiables en la función 'recursive_unserialize_replace'. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados inyecten un objeto PHP. No hay ninguna cadena POP presente en el software vulnerable. Si hay una cadena POP presente a través de un complemento o tema adicional instalado en el sistema de destino, podría permitir al atacante eliminar archivos arbitrarios, recuperar datos confidenciales o ejecutar código. Un administrador debe realizar una acción de búsqueda y reemplazo para activar el exploit.
