Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in Elementra <= 1.0.9 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated PHP object injection in the WordPress Elementra theme (versions ≤ 1.0.9) allows remote attackers to deliver crafted serialized payloads that trigger deserialization of untrusted data. With no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the CVSS 9.8 vector still indicates network-reachable, no-auth exploitation against any WordPress site running an affected Elementra build. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The target site must have the Elementra theme by themerex_group installed and active at version 1.0.9 or earlier, and the vulnerable injection sink must be reachable over the network with no authentication or user interaction (consistent with AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H is internally consistent with Patchstack's 'unauthenticated' classification - remote, low-complexity, no authentication, no user interaction, full CIA impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker crafts a serialized PHP object referencing a POP gadget present in WordPress core or another installed plugin, then submits it to a vulnerable Elementra parameter (query string, POST body, or cookie) reachable on the public site. The theme deserializes the payload, the gadget chain fires during object lifecycle methods, and the attacker achieves arbitrary file write or PHP code execution leading to full site takeover. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/elementra/vulnerability/wordpress-elementra-theme-1-0-9-php-object-injection-vulnerability lists affected versions ≤1.0.9 without naming a fixed release, so administrators should monitor themerex_group for a version above 1.0.9 and apply it as soon as it ships. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
24 hours: Inventory all WordPress deployments and identify those running Elementra theme ≤1.0.9; disable the theme or restrict access to trusted networks only. …
