Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-04-09 21:31 – Updated: 2024-04-09 21:31The Simple Job Board plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.11.0 via deserialization of untrusted input in the job_board_applicant_list_columns_value function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code when a submitted job application is viewed.

GHSA-M273-6V24-X4M4
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-29 15:22 – Updated: 2026-06-18 14:44Summary
Picklescan has got open() and shutil in its default dangerous blocklist to prevent arbitrary file overwrites. However the module distutils isnt blocked and can be used for the same purpose ie to write arbitrary files.
Details
This is another vulnerability which impacts the downstream user.
By constructing a pickle that user distutils.file_util.write_file, an attacker can overwrite critical system files (like .ssh/authorized_keys, web server configurations, or source code) to achieve DoS or escalate to RCE.
PoC
import pickle
import distutils.file_util
class FileWriteBypass:
def __reduce__(self):
target_file = "pwned_config.env"
content = ["print('I have overwritten your config')"]
return (distutils.file_util.write_file, (target_file, content))
payload = pickle.dumps(FileWriteBypass())
with open("bypass_filewrite.pkl", "wb") as f:
f.write(payload)
print("bypass_filewrite.pkl")
To fix this just add disutil to the blacklist

GHSA-M27R-M6RX-MHM4
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-21 15:40 – Updated: 2026-01-22 15:39Impact
This vulnerability affects Laravel Reverb versions prior to v1.7.0 when horizontal scaling is enabled (REVERB_SCALING_ENABLED=true).
The exploitability of this vulnerability is increased because Redis servers are commonly deployed without authentication.
With horizontal scaling enabled, Reverb servers communicate via Redis PubSub. Reverb previously passed data from the Redis channel directly into PHP’s unserialize() function without restricting which classes could be instantiated.
Risk: Remote Code Execution (RCE)
Patches
This vulnerability is fixed in Laravel Reverb v1.7.0.
Update your dependency to laravel/reverb: ^1.7.0 immediately.
Workarounds
If you cannot upgrade to v1.7.0, you should apply the following mitigations:
- Redis Security: Require a strong password for Redis access and ensure the service is only accessible via a private network or local loopback.
- Disable Scaling: If your environment uses only one Reverb node, set
REVERB_SCALING_ENABLED=falseto bypass the vulnerable logic entirely.

Mitigation
If available, use the signing/sealing features of the programming language to assure that deserialized data has not been tainted. For example, a hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) could be used to ensure that data has not been modified.
Mitigation
When deserializing data, populate a new object rather than just deserializing. The result is that the data flows through safe input validation and that the functions are safe.
Mitigation
Explicitly define a final object() to prevent deserialization.
Mitigation
- Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
- An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
Mitigation
Avoid having unnecessary types or gadgets (a sequence of instances and method invocations that can self-execute during the deserialization process, often found in libraries) available that can be leveraged for malicious ends. This limits the potential for unintended or unauthorized types and gadgets to be leveraged by the attacker. Add only acceptable classes to an allowlist. Note: new gadgets are constantly being discovered, so this alone is not a sufficient mitigation.
Mitigation
Employ cryptography of the data or code for protection. However, it's important to note that it would still be client-side security. This is risky because if the client is compromised then the security implemented on the client (the cryptography) can be bypassed.
Mitigation MIT-29
Strategy: Firewall
Use an application firewall that can detect attacks against this weakness. It can be beneficial in cases in which the code cannot be fixed (because it is controlled by a third party), as an emergency prevention measure while more comprehensive software assurance measures are applied, or to provide defense in depth [REF-1481].
CAPEC-586: Object Injection
An adversary attempts to exploit an application by injecting additional, malicious content during its processing of serialized objects. Developers leverage serialization in order to convert data or state into a static, binary format for saving to disk or transferring over a network. These objects are then deserialized when needed to recover the data/state. By injecting a malformed object into a vulnerable application, an adversary can potentially compromise the application by manipulating the deserialization process. This can result in a number of unwanted outcomes, including remote code execution.
