Technical details
The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in versions up to and including 3.1.0. This vulnerability occurs due to the deserialization of untrusted data (CWE-502) without proper validation. 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, the attacker can achieve remote code execution, perform SQL injection, or conduct arbitrary file deletion. The issue is resolved in version 3.1.1.
