CVE-2025-0956: CWE-502 Deserialization of Untrusted Data in FantasticPlugins WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart
The WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 24.4.0 via deserialization of untrusted input from the 'raccookie_guest_email' cookie. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-0956 is a PHP Object Injection vulnerability in the WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart WordPress plugin through unsafe deserialization of the 'raccookie_guest_email' cookie. The flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to inject PHP objects. However, exploitation requires the presence of a gadget chain (POP chain) in other installed plugins or themes, which could enable arbitrary file deletion, data disclosure, or code execution depending on the chain. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 24.4.0 and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1 (Network attack vector, High complexity, No privileges, No user interaction, impacts Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability).
Potential Impact
If exploited in conjunction with a suitable POP chain from other plugins or themes, this vulnerability could lead to critical impacts including arbitrary file deletion, sensitive data exposure, and remote code execution. Without such a POP chain, the vulnerability has no direct impact. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or vendor advisory is currently available for this vulnerability. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is released, administrators should consider removing or disabling the WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart plugin or ensure that no other plugins or themes installed provide a POP chain that could be leveraged for exploitation.
