AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-reachable unauthenticated WordPress theme endpoint (AV:N, PR:N, UI:N); practical PHP object injection needs a POP gadget chain, justifying AC:H; deserialization typically yields full C/I/A impact on the site.

Successful exploitation can yield high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the underlying WordPress site, typically by chaining the injected object with a POP gadget present in the theme, WordPress core, or another installed plugin. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The target site must have the Select Themes Mildhill theme installed and active at version 1.5 or earlier, and the vulnerable parameter or endpoint that feeds into PHP unserialize() must be reachable over the network from the attacker. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mixed and should be weighed carefully. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker identifies a public WordPress site running the Mildhill theme version 1.5 or earlier and sends a crafted HTTP request containing a serialized PHP payload to a theme endpoint or parameter that feeds into unserialize(). Because no public exploit identified at time of analysis is referenced, the attacker must research a usable POP gadget chain in WordPress core or installed plugins; if successful, deserialization triggers magic methods that lead to arbitrary file read/write or remote code execution, after which the attacker installs a webshell and pivots to full site compromise. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; the only reference is the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/mildhill/vulnerability/wordpress-mildhill-theme-1-5-php-object-injection-vulnerability, which does not list a fixed version in the provided data, so site operators should check Select Themes (ThemeForest/Qode Interactive) for an updated Mildhill release greater than 1.5 and upgrade as soon as one is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Scan all WordPress instances to identify those running Mildhill theme version 1.5 or earlier; document affected sites and their business criticality. …
