Technical details
A PHP Object Injection vulnerability exists in the SingleMalt theme for WordPress (versions <= 1.5) due to improper deserialization of user-supplied data (CWE-502). An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted input to the application. If a suitable Property-Oriented Programming (POP) chain is present in the environment, this can lead to arbitrary code execution, SQL injection, or file system traversal. The vulnerability is mitigated in version 1.6.
