An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-53299 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ThemeMakers Visual Content Composer. 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-2025-53299/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53299/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-53299","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53299/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-53299","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xxm4-m7f5-mqxf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can exploit PHP object injection in the Visual Content Composer plugin to potentially execute arbitrary code on the WordPress site.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in ThemeMakers ThemeMakers Visual Content Composer tmm_content_composer allows Object Injection.This issue affects ThemeMakers Visual Content Composer: from n/a through \u003c= 1.5.8.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress ThemeMakers Visual Content Composer Plugin \u003c= 1.5.8 - PHP Object Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-53299","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"deserialization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Podcast Feed Player Widget and Shortcode plugin \u003c= 2.2.0 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-53300"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Plugin Inspector plugin \u003c= 1.5 - Arbitrary File Download Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-53298"},"products":["ThemeMakers Visual Content Composer"],"published":"2025-08-20","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["ThemeMakers"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit PHP object injection in the Visual Content Composer plugin to potentially execute arbitrary code on the WordPress site.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53299/"}
