PHP object injection via unsafe XProfile deserialization
Published Jul 30, 2026 · Updated Jul 30, 2026
Deserialization of untrusted data in BuddyPress 14.5.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject PHP objects through XProfile fields. The bp_unserialize_profile_field() function passes user-controlled XProfile textbox data to @unserialize() without restricting allowed classes. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, but remote code execution also requires a usable PHP object chain in the WordPress environment.

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.
