Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in thememount Apicona apicona allows Object Injection.This issue affects Apicona: from n/a through <= 24.1.0.
AnalysisAI
Apicona, a WordPress theme by thememount, contains a PHP object injection vulnerability stemming from unsafe deserialization of untrusted data (CWE-502). All versions through 24.1.0 are affected. An attacker can exploit this to inject arbitrary objects into the application, potentially leading to remote code execution or other malicious object manipulation depending on available gadget chains within the PHP environment.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data), a well-known attack vector in PHP applications where unfiltered user input is passed to unserialize() or similar deserialization functions. Apicona (cpe:2.3:a:thememount:apicona:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), a WordPress theme, fails to properly sanitize or validate serialized data before deserializing it. This allows attackers to craft malicious serialized objects that, when unserialized by the application, can invoke object-oriented gadget chains to achieve arbitrary code execution or privilege escalation. The issue affects all versions from an undefined baseline through version 24.1.0, indicating the vulnerability was present for an extended period without remediation.
RemediationAI
Immediately upgrade Apicona to a version newer than 24.1.0 if a patched release is available from thememount. Until a security patch is released, implement the following mitigations: disable or remove the vulnerable Apicona theme and substitute it with an alternative WordPress theme; implement strict input validation and sanitization across all theme functionality; apply a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to block serialized object patterns in user input; and enforce PHP security configurations such as disabling dangerous functions if applicable. Contact thememount directly for an official security advisory and patch timeline. Monitor Patchstack and ENISA EUVD (EUVD-2026-15713) for patch announcements.
