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 plugin 'Multiple Shipping And Billing Address For WooCommerce' contains a PHP Object Injection vulnerability caused by unsafe use of unserialize() on untrusted input. An attacker can inject malicious PHP objects, potentially triggering magic methods to achieve remote code execution if gadget chains exist in the WordPress environment.

MitigationReplace all unserialize() calls with json_decode() or implement proper input validation/whitelisting. Audit for and remove any dangerous magic methods in the plugin or dependent code that could be chained for RCE.

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. Locate the plugin installation
    Check for the presence of the 'Multiple Shipping And Billing Address For WooCommerce' plugin in the WordPress wp-content/plugins directory, or query it via WP-CLI: wp plugin list --name='multiple-shipping-and-billing-address-for-woocommerce'
    Affected if The plugin is not installed on the WordPress site
  2. Identify the installed version
    Check the plugin's main PHP file header for the Version comment, or run: wp plugin get multiple-shipping-and-billing-address-for-woocommerce --field=version
    Affected if The installed version matches or falls within the vulnerable version range (compare your version to the affected versions stated in the plugin's changelog or security advisory)
  3. Find unsafe unserialize() calls in plugin code
    Search the plugin directory for unserialize() calls: grep -r "unserialize" /path/to/wp-content/plugins/multiple-shipping-and-billing-address-for-woocommerce/
    Affected if The plugin code contains unserialize() calls that process input without sanitization
  4. Determine if untrusted input reaches unserialize()
    Examine the code around each unserialize() call to trace whether $_GET, $_POST, $_REQUEST, or similar user-supplied data flows into it. Look for patterns like unserialize($_POST['...']) or unserialize($_REQUEST['...'])
    Affected if User-controllable data from request parameters is passed directly to unserialize() without prior validation or sanitization

A user is affected if the plugin is installed, contains the vulnerable unserialize() pattern, and untrusted request input reaches that unserialize() call without validation.
