Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in Playroom <= 1.4.1 versions.

AnalysisAI

PHP Object Injection in the Playroom WordPress theme (versions ≤ 1.4.1) by elated-themes allows remote attackers to inject crafted serialized objects that are deserialized by the application, potentially triggering POP-chain gadgets. The vulnerability is described as unauthenticated by Patchstack despite the CVSS vector listing PR:H, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify Playroom theme on target

Exploit
Send HTTP request to vulnerable endpoint
Execution
Trigger unserialize() on attacker input
Persist
Invoke POP gadget chain via magic methods
Impact
Achieve file or data manipulation on site

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target WordPress site must have the Playroom theme installed and active at version 1.4.1 or earlier, and the attacker must be able to reach the vulnerable theme endpoint over HTTP(S). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment There is a meaningful conflict between sources: the Patchstack description explicitly states "Unauthenticated" while the CVSS vector encodes PR:H (high privileges required) with Scope:Changed and only Low confidentiality/integrity impact (no availability). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits an HTTP request to a Playroom theme endpoint with a parameter containing a serialized PHP object payload crafted to invoke a POP gadget chain present in WordPress core or a bundled library. When the theme calls unserialize() on the attacker-controlled value, magic methods fire and pivot through gadgets to achieve actions such as file write, arbitrary read, or administrative state change - the precise outcome depending on which gadget chains exist on the target installation.
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the references describe versions ≤ 1.4.1 as vulnerable without naming a fixed release, so administrators should monitor the elated-themes vendor portal and the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/playroom/vulnerability/wordpress-playroom-theme-1-4-1-php-object-injection-vulnerability for a corrected build and upgrade as soon as one is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Within 24 hours: Identify all WordPress installations using Playroom theme version 1.4.1 or earlier through automated scanning or manual inventory. …
