NVD · unedited
Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in acowebs Product Table For WooCommerce product-table-for-woocommerce.This issue affects Product Table For WooCommerce: from n/a through <= 1.2.4.

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 · moderate confidence

This is a PHP deserialization vulnerability in the Product Table For WooCommerce plugin. The plugin deserializes untrusted input without proper validation, potentially allowing authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying malicious serialized PHP objects.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of Product Table For WooCommerce (if available) and audit the codebase for unsafe unserialize() calls, replacing them with safer alternatives like JSON encoding or implementing strict whitelist validation for any deserialization operations.

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. Verify Product Table For WooCommerce is installed
    Check your WordPress plugins directory or WordPress admin panel for the Product Table For WooCommerce plugin and note its installed version
    Affected if The plugin is installed and the version is unknown or falls within any vulnerable version range
  2. Locate PHP files containing unserialize() calls
    Search the plugin directory for files containing the pattern 'unserialize(' - typically in main plugin files or class files handling data processing
    Affected if The plugin contains unserialize() calls in its PHP code
  3. Inspect unserialize() calls for input validation
    Examine each unserialize() call to determine if it processes data from user input (POST, GET, request parameters, database, or external APIs) without sanitization or whitelist validation
    Affected if Unserialize is called on untrusted input without proper validation checks (such as whitelist validation, JSON encoding, or type checking)
  4. Verify authentication requirements for the vulnerable code path
    Determine if the unserialize() code is reachable only by authenticated users (logged-in users with any role) or also by unauthenticated visitors
    Affected if The vulnerable code path is accessible to authenticated users (any logged-in user)
  5. Compare your installed version against fixed releases
    Check the WordPress plugin repository or vendor release notes for any version updates that address this deserialization vulnerability
    Affected if Your installed version predates any available patched version

You are affected if Product Table For WooCommerce is installed with an unpatched version and the plugin code contains unserialize() calls processing untrusted input without validation.
