An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-1549 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Ad Inserter. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1549/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1549/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-1549","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1549/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-1549","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v9wx-wp77-q49m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Admins can trigger PHP object injection via unsafe deserialization in Ad Inserter plugin settings, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"ad_inserter","vendor":"ad_inserter_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Ad Inserter WordPress plugin before 2.7.27 unserializes user input provided via the settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform PHP Object Injection when a suitable gadget is present","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Ad Inserter \u003c 2.7.27 - Admin+ PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2023-1549","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"deserialization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"NGINX Agent vulnerability CVE-2023-1550","id":"CVE-2023-1550"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in EcoStruxure Control Expert","id":"CVE-2023-1548"},"products":["Ad Inserter"],"published":"2023-05-15","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-9497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-15324","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-15323","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Ad Inserter \u003c 2.7.12 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-0901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-04"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Ad Inserter \u003c= 2.7.30 - Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Exposure via ai-debug-processing-fe","id":"CVE-2023-4668","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-01-24","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Admins can trigger PHP object injection via unsafe deserialization in Ad Inserter plugin settings, potentially leading to code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1549/"}
