Authenticated PHP object injection via unsafe deserialization
Published Oct 22, 2025 · Updated Oct 22, 2025
PHP object injection in DesignThemes Insurance WordPress Theme 3.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject PHP objects. Published records identify deserialization of untrusted input as the faulty operation but do not disclose the affected file, function, or input parameter. Subscriber-level access is required; the theme has no known POP chain, so file deletion, sensitive data access, or code execution requires a suitable chain from another installed component.
