Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Advanced Order Export For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.5 via deserialization of untrusted input during Order export when the "Try to convert serialized values" option is enabled. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. The additional presence of a POP chain allows attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Advanced Order Export For WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via unsafe deserialization of untrusted input. When the 'Try to convert serialized values' option is enabled, unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious PHP objects and leverage a pre-existing POP chain to delete arbitrary files on the server, enabling remote code execution by deleting critical files like wp-config.php.

MitigationImmediately disable the 'Try to convert serialized values' option in the plugin settings and update to a patched version once released. Audit for signs of compromise, particularly file deletion or unauthorized access.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm plugin installation and version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Find 'Advanced Order Export For WooCommerce' and note the version number displayed below the plugin name. Alternatively, check the plugin's main PHP file header for the Version constant.
    Affected if Version is present and less than 3.5.6
  2. Locate vulnerable option setting
    In WordPress admin, navigate to WooCommerce > Export Orders (or the plugin's settings page). Look for a checkbox or toggle labeled 'Try to convert serialized values' or similar phrasing about serialized data conversion.
    Affected if The 'Try to convert serialized values' option is found and currently enabled (checked/active)
  3. Check for modified or deleted core files
    Compare current WordPress core files (especially wp-config.php, index.php, and .htaccess in the site root) against a known-good backup. Use file integrity scanning tools or manually verify file timestamps and content hashes.
    Affected if wp-config.php or other critical files are missing, modified, or show unexpected timestamps
  4. Audit server for suspicious file creation
    Review the WordPress upload directory (wp-content/uploads) and plugin directories for newly created PHP files with random names, encoded content, or base64 strings. Check access logs for unusual POST requests to export endpoints.
    Affected if Unknown PHP files exist in uploads folder or suspicious POST requests to export functionality are present

User is affected if the plugin version is below 3.5.6 AND the 'Try to convert serialized values' option is enabled, or if evidence of file deletion/modification is found on the server.
