Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress account with at least Contributor-level privileges on a site running Post Duplicator plugin version 3.0.10 or earlier, plus the presence of a usable POP gadget chain in WordPress core or another installed plugin/theme to escalate the deserialization primitive into meaningful impact (RCE, file write, or SQLi). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.8 score with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H reflects network-reachable exploitation with low complexity, low privileges (Contributor account), no user interaction, and full impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker registers or compromises a Contributor account on a target WordPress site running Post Duplicator <= 3.0.10, then submits a request to the plugin's duplication endpoint containing a crafted serialized PHP payload that triggers a POP gadget chain in WordPress core or another installed plugin. The deserialization instantiates attacker-controlled objects whose magic methods execute arbitrary code, write a webshell, or exfiltrate database contents, resulting in full site compromise. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis based on the provided data - the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/post-duplicator/vulnerability/wordpress-post-duplicator-plugin-3-0-10-php-object-injection-vulnerability) should be consulted for the latest fixed version, and administrators should upgrade to any release newer than 3.0.10 once available. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
