CVE-2026-40761Network attack vector

Unauthenticated injection of attacker-controlled PHP objects

Published Jun 16, 2026 · Updated Jun 16, 2026

PHP object injection in Edge Themes Valeska 1.2.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject objects through unauthenticated requests. Neither Patchstack nor the CNA record identifies the request parameter, PHP function, or deserialization path that accepts attacker-controlled serialized data. A usable property-oriented programming chain can turn object construction into code injection, SQL injection, path traversal, or a service interrupt; without one, no further impact is established.
