Unauthenticated network reach (PR:N/AV:N) but RCE depends on an available gadget chain (AC:H); impact stays within the WordPress process so S:U, with full C/I/A compromise.

DescriptionCVE.org

The Remote API WordPress plugin through 0.2 does not authenticate a request before deserializing user-supplied input, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary PHP objects, which can lead to remote code execution when a suitable gadget chain is present through another installed Remote API WordPress plugin through 0.2.

AnalysisAI

PHP object injection in the Remote API WordPress plugin (all versions through 0.2) lets unauthenticated attackers deserialize attacker-supplied input, and when a suitable gadget chain is available it escalates to remote code execution on the host. The flaw stems from the plugin processing serialized user input before any authentication check. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Reach unauthenticated Remote API endpoint
Delivery
Send serialized PHP object payload
Exploit
Plugin deserializes without auth check
Execution
Instantiate attacker-controlled objects
Persist
Trigger gadget-chain magic methods
Impact
Execute arbitrary code on server

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The reachable trigger requires no authentication and no user interaction: the plugin deserializes user-supplied input before authenticating the request, so any actor able to reach the Remote API endpoint over the network can inject arbitrary PHP objects against a default install of the plugin (versions ≤0.2). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals are mixed and warrant nuanced prioritization rather than blind CVSS-driven urgency. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to the plugin's remote API endpoint containing a serialized PHP payload; the plugin deserializes it without any auth check, instantiating attacker-chosen objects. If the WordPress install has a compatible gadget chain in a loaded plugin/theme/core, object lifecycle methods fire and execute the attacker's code on the server. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the advisory covers all versions through 0.2 with no fixed version cited. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: conduct a comprehensive inventory of all WordPress instances to identify Remote API plugin versions 0.2 and below by scanning wp-content/plugins directories and WordPress database plugin tables. …
