Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection to Remote Code Execution on GiveWP
Patchstack details an unauthenticated PHP object injection chain enabling remote code execution in the GiveWP WordPress donation plugin.
Patchstack disclosed an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the GiveWP WordPress donation plugin. An attacker with no account can execute arbitrary commands on the server of an affected GiveWP site. The full chain is reachable when a site has one published donation form and one active payment gateway, a configuration the researcher describes as a common default.
Flextype v1.0.0-alpha.3 CMS registerShortcodes() Remote Code Execution via Attacker-Controlled File Inclusion
Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 allows PHP remote code execution via path traversal in the Entries API combined with shortcode file inclusion.
Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 exposes a remote code execution path through the interaction of the Entries API and Shortcodes::registerShortcodes(). The /api/v1/entries endpoint accepts attacker-controlled entry identifiers containing path traversal sequences, allowing PHP-containing content to be written outside the intended entries directory. A subsequent attacker-controlled path can then be included and executed as PHP. Ron E posted the disclosure to the Full Disclosure mailing list on September 3, 2026.
