AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Subscriber auth gives PR:L; dependency on specific integration plugins and recipe config gives AC:H; documented impact is arbitrary file deletion, so I:H/A:H with C:N.

The Uncanny Automator - AI + Automation for WordPress | AI Agent, AI Page Builder, Free AI Usage Included plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 7.6.1.1 via deserialization of untrusted input. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object when a third-party integration plugin (such as PeepSo, MailPoet, WPForms, etc) is installed and a recipe is configured that stores attacker-controlled data as trigger meta. The additional presence of a POP chain within Uncanny Automator allows attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server.
AnalysisAI
PHP object injection in the WordPress plugin Uncanny Automator - AI + Automation for WordPress (all versions up to and including 7.6.1.1) lets an authenticated attacker with Subscriber-level access or above pass attacker-controlled data into an unserialize() sink via recipe trigger meta, and a POP chain present in Uncanny Automator itself escalates that into deletion of arbitrary files on the server. Exploitation is conditional rather than trivial: it additionally requires at least one supported third-party integration plugin (PeepSo, MailPoet, WPForms, and similar) to be co-installed and a recipe to be configured so that attacker-supplied input is stored as trigger meta - a combination of prerequisites that is why the assessed vector is AC:H and the plugin's real-world exposure is best characterized as a genuine but conditional risk rather than a mass-exploitation emergency. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires ALL of the following: (1) an attacker with authenticated Subscriber-level access or above (PR:L) - trivial on sites with open user registration; (2) at least one supported third-party integration plugin installed alongside Uncanny Automator, explicitly PeepSo, MailPoet, or WPForms (among others); and (3) a recipe configured such that attacker-controlled input is stored as trigger meta that is later deserialized. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but conditional risk rather than a mass-exploitation emergency. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply the upstream fix without delay: changeset 3721435 in the WordPress.org plugin repository (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3721435/) carries the code correction, so update Uncanny Automator to the first release published after 7.6.1.1 - the Wordfence advisory at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/ce918263-dc4a-4db1-a506-a9e6c8125741?source=cve should be checked for the exact patched version string, which is not confirmed by the data available here; until then the status is best described as an upstream fix available (PR/commit) with the released patched version not independently confirmed. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory every WordPress instance running Uncanny Automator at version 7.6.1.1 or below, confirm whether any co-installed integration plugin (PeepSo, MailPoet, WPForms, or similar) and recipe configuration could store attacker-supplied data as trigger meta, and if so temporarily deactivate the Uncanny Automator plugin or disable the affected recipes and integrations until a fix is available. …
