- 3Code runs on serverInjected objects trigger dangerous PHP behavior
- ResultAttacker may control the server
What happened
Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in Nuts versions 1.12 and earlier, caused by unsafe deserialization of attacker-supplied data.
Why it is dangerous: Successful exploitation can allow full compromise of the affected server and its data, and it requires no account, so any internet visitor can attempt it.
Are you affected?
You are affected if you run Nuts version 1.12 or earlier.
Nuts <= 1.12
What to do
- Check whether Nuts is installed and which version you are running
- If you run Nuts 1.12 or earlier, disable or remove it until a fixed version is available
- Watch the GHSA-rph7-jgqm-mq62 advisory for an official patch and update as soon as one is released
