CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/502.html

The food-and-drink-menu plugin through 2.2.0 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code because of an unserialize operation on the fdm_cart cookie in load_cart_from_cookie in includes/class-cart-manager.php.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Five_star_restaurant_menu Fivestarplugins * 2.2.0 (including)

Potential Mitigations

  • 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.
