ThemeREX Law Office WordPress theme: Unauthenticated PHP object injection
Summary
The Law Office WordPress theme by ThemeREX, versions up to and including 3.20, contains an unauthenticated PHP object injection flaw (CWE-502). An attacker can send crafted data over the network without logging in, which can manipulate how the website processes data. The CVSS vector rates confidentiality, integrity and availability impact as high, and code execution depends on gadget chains present in the installation, which are not verified.
Affected
- ThemeREX Law Office WordPress theme, all versions up to and including 3.20
Fixed in
Unknown. Sources conflict. One unverified source mentions version 3.21 or later, but no ThemeREX advisory or release note confirms it. Do not assume 3.21 is the fix until it is verified.
Workaround
- No confirmed workaround from the vendor.
- Deactivate or remove the theme on exposed sites until a fix is confirmed.
- Restrict access to affected sites where feasible.
- Consider WAF rules for deserialization-style requests; virtual patching is not a substitute for a fix.
Exploitation
- Not known to be exploited; not listed in the CISA KEV catalogue according to a GitHub triage alert.
- CNA SSVC: exploitation none, automatable yes, technical impact total.
- EPSS: 0.00304.
- No public proof of concept found.
Our recommendation
- Check all WordPress sites for the Law Office theme, including inactive and staging installations.
- Record the exact version; treat 3.20 or older, or an unknown version, as vulnerable.
- Contact ThemeREX or check the Patchstack entry to confirm the fixed version before updating.
- Until a fix is confirmed, deactivate the theme or restrict access, and monitor logs for unusual requests.
- Re-check NVD and Patchstack in a few days, as the record is still being updated.
