{"id":"CVE-2022-2433","summary":"WordPress Infinite Scroll – Ajax Load More \u003c= 5.5.3 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to PHAR Deserialization","details":"The WordPress Infinite Scroll – Ajax Load More plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to deserialization of untrusted input via the 'alm_repeaters_export' parameter in versions up to, and including 5.5.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated users to call files using a PHAR wrapper, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link, that will deserialize and call arbitrary PHP Objects that can be used to perform a variety of malicious actions granted a POP chain is also present. It also requires that the attacker is successful in uploading a file with the serialized payload.","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:40.027620286Z","published":"2022-09-06T17:18:56Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Wordfence","cwe_ids":["CWE-502"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/2xxx/CVE-2022-2433.json","unresolved_ranges":[{"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD","extracted_events":[{"last_affected":"5.5.3"}]}]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/2772627/ajax-load-more/trunk/admin/admin.php"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/040ae20d-93e3-4c65-ba74-4ff0b5c1afc7?source=cve"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/2xxx/CVE-2022-2433.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-2433"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.wordfence.com/vulnerability-advisories/#CVE-2022-2433"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/dcooney/ajax-load-more/commit/b577b3257544bc74a5d2ad14f0a0f7df3eb843de"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/ajaxloadmore/ajax-load-more","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"b577b3257544bc74a5d2ad14f0a0f7df3eb843de"}],"database_specific":{"source":"REFERENCES"}}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2022-2433.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
