Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
The LearnPress - Backup & Migration Tool plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.4 via deserialization of untrusted input . This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present.
AnalysisAI
PHP Object Injection in the LearnPress - Backup & Migration Tool WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 4.1.4, by ThimPress) allows authenticated administrators to supply maliciously crafted serialized data through the plugin's import functionality, triggering unsafe PHP deserialization. The vulnerability itself carries no direct impact in isolation - exploitation is contingent on a separate plugin or theme installing a usable POP (Property-Oriented Programming) chain on the same site, at which point an attacker can escalate to arbitrary file deletion, sensitive data retrieval, or remote code execution. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated session with WordPress administrator-level privileges (PR:H confirmed by CVSS vector) - a non-default, high-privilege role not held by subscribers, contributors, or editors. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.6 is supported by the vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has obtained WordPress administrator credentials - through credential stuffing, phishing, or a separate account-takeover vulnerability - navigates to the LearnPress import interface and uploads a crafted backup file containing a serialized PHP payload. When the plugin processes the import at class-lp-import-learnpress.php or parsers.php, PHP's unserialize() instantiates the attacker's injected object and triggers magic methods belonging to a POP chain supplied by another installed plugin (e.g., a file manager plugin exposing a __destruct method that writes arbitrary files), ultimately achieving remote code execution or file deletion on the server. … |
| Remediation | Update the LearnPress - Backup & Migration Tool plugin to version 4.1.5 or later; this version is referenced in the WordPress plugin repository (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/learnpress-import-export/tags/4.1.5/inc/functions.php#L384) and is the earliest tag post-4.1.4, suggesting it contains the fix, though the patched version has not been independently confirmed via a formal vendor changelog. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
