FKIE_CVE-2025-12844

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-11-13 08:15 - Updated: 2026-10-07 21:10
Summary
The AI Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection via PHAR Deserialization in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.8 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'rest_simpleTranscribeAudio' and 'rest_simpleVisionQuery' functions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, 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.

Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel Suscriptor y superior, inyecten un Objeto PHP. No se conoce ninguna cadena POP presente en el software vulnerable, lo que significa que esta vulnerabilidad no tiene impacto a menos que otro plugin o tema que contenga una cadena POP est\u00e9 instalado en el sitio. Si una cadena POP est\u00e1 presente a trav\u00e9s de un plugin o tema adicional instalado en el sistema objetivo, puede permitir al atacante realizar acciones como eliminar archivos arbitrarios, recuperar datos sensibles o ejecutar c\u00f3digo dependiendo de la cadena POP presente."
