Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in Fidalgo <= 1.2.2 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in the Fidalgo WordPress theme (versions ≤1.2.2) allows remote attackers to inject crafted serialized PHP objects that are deserialized by the theme, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution, data tampering, or service disruption depending on available gadget chains. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the unauthenticated network vector and CWE-502 classification make this a meaningful risk for WordPress sites running this commercial theme.

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Target site must be running the Fidalgo WordPress theme at version 1.2.2 or earlier with the vulnerable theme code reachable via HTTP(S) on a publicly accessible endpoint (AJAX, REST, or front-end request handler). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects an unauthenticated network-reachable flaw with high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, tempered by high attack complexity - typically indicating that exploitation depends on the presence of a usable PHP gadget chain in the running WordPress stack, which is environment-specific. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated remote attacker identifies a WordPress site running the Fidalgo theme ≤1.2.2 and sends a crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable theme endpoint containing a serialized PHP object payload that targets a known gadget chain in WordPress core or co-installed plugins. When the theme deserializes the payload, the gadget chain triggers actions such as arbitrary file write, SQL execution, or remote code execution, yielding full compromise of the WordPress installation. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis from the supplied data; site operators should consult the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/fidalgo/vulnerability/wordpress-fidalgo-theme-1-2-2-php-object-injection-vulnerability and the Elated Themes vendor channel for an updated theme release above 1.2.2 and apply it as soon as it is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
