Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Edge-Themes Pelicula pelicula-video-production-and-movie-theme allows Object Injection.This issue affects Pelicula: from n/a through < 1.10.
AnalysisAI
A PHP object injection vulnerability exists in the Edge-Themes Pelicula video production and movie theme due to insecure deserialization of untrusted data, classified as CWE-502. The vulnerability affects Pelicula versions prior to 1.10, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary objects and potentially achieve remote code execution or other malicious outcomes. No CVSS score or EPSS data has been published, and no confirmed KEV or active exploitation in the wild has been reported, but the nature of object injection vulnerabilities typically enables high-impact attacks when paired with accessible gadget chains in the WordPress ecosystem.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability stems from unsafe PHP unserialization (CWE-502) within the Pelicula WordPress theme developed by Edge-Themes. The theme, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:edge-themes:pelicula:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, likely processes user-supplied input or stored data through PHP's unserialize() function without proper validation. In object injection attacks, attackers craft malicious serialized PHP objects that, when unserialized, trigger the instantiation of arbitrary classes and invoke magic methods (__wakeup, __destruct, __toString, etc.). These methods can chain through available WordPress plugins and themes to reach dangerous functions like eval(), system(), or file write operations. The attack does not require a complex exploit chain if vulnerable gadgets exist in the WordPress installation.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the Pelicula theme to version 1.10 or later immediately by accessing the WordPress admin dashboard, navigating to Appearance > Themes, and clicking the update button if available, or by downloading the patched version directly from the Edge-Themes website or WordPress.org theme repository. Until patching is feasible, implement WordPress security hardening: restrict theme and plugin editing by setting define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true) in wp-config.php, disable file uploads to non-admin users, enforce strong administrator credentials, and use a WordPress security plugin (e.g., Wordfence, Sucuri) with intrusion detection rules for PHP object injection attempts. Monitor the Patchstack vulnerability database and WordPress security mailing lists for additional guidance.
