PHP object injection via unserialized form metadata
Published Aug 16, 2026 · Updated Aug 16, 2026
PHP object injection in Repute InfoSystems ARForms 1.8.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject objects via form submissions. arfliterecordmodel::arflitegetOne() and arflitegetAll() pass stored entry_value data from public item_meta fields to maybe_unserialize(). Submitting a form requires no account, but file deletion, data disclosure, or code execution requires a usable POP chain from another installed plugin or theme.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
