CVE-2026-10035: CWE-502 Deserialization of Untrusted Data in wpweaver Turnkey bbPress by WeaverTheme
The Turnkey bbPress by WeaverTheme plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.1 via deserialization of untrusted input in the wvrbbp_set_to_serialized_values() function (reached through the wvrbbp_save_restore() settings-restore handler). The function reads the raw contents of an administrator-uploaded file and passes them directly to unserialize() without any validation. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable plugin itself; however, if a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-10035 describes a PHP Object Injection vulnerability in the Turnkey bbPress by WeaverTheme WordPress plugin, affecting all versions up to 1.7.1. The vulnerability arises from the wvrbbp_set_to_serialized_values() function, which unserializes raw contents of an administrator-uploaded file without validation. This occurs through the wvrbbp_save_restore() settings-restore handler. An attacker with administrator privileges can inject a PHP object. Although the vulnerable plugin lacks a native POP chain, exploitation can occur if other installed plugins or themes provide one, potentially enabling arbitrary file deletion, sensitive data retrieval, or code execution.
Potential Impact
An attacker with administrator-level privileges can exploit this vulnerability to inject PHP objects via deserialization. If a suitable POP chain exists in other installed plugins or themes, this could lead to arbitrary file deletion, disclosure of sensitive information, or remote code execution. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict administrator access to trusted users only and avoid uploading untrusted files through the affected functionality. Monitor vendor channels for updates or patches addressing this vulnerability.
