What happened
The Edge Decor plugin for WordPress has an unauthenticated PHP object injection flaw, meaning untrusted input is unserialized into PHP objects without validation.
Why it is dangerous: An attacker who exploits this can potentially execute code on the server, read or change data, or fully control the website. Any site running the affected plugin is at risk, and no login is required to attack it.
Are you affected?
You are affected if you run the Edge Decor plugin version 2.9 or earlier on your WordPress site.
Edge Decor <= 2.9
What to do
- Check whether the Edge Decor plugin is installed and what version it is
- Update Edge Decor to a version newer than 2.9 as soon as a fixed release is available
- If no fix is available yet, deactivate or remove the Edge Decor plugin
- Review the site for unexpected files, admin users, or changes
