Site compromise via crafted object injection
Published Aug 19, 2026 · Updated Aug 19, 2026
PHP object injection in WP Desk Flexible Subscriptions before 1.8.2 allows attackers to compromise a WordPress site via crafted serialized input. Patchstack and the CVE record identify unsafe deserialization of customer-controlled data as the flaw, but the public advisory does not disclose the exact file, function, or request parameter that reaches unserialize or maybe_unserialize. Version 1.8.2 is listed as fixed; public records disagree on reachability, with Patchstack labeling the issue Customer-level while the published CVSS vector says no privileges and no user interaction are required.
