CVE-2026-0910: wpForo Forum <= 2.4.13 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) PHP Object Injection

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.13 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'wpforo_display_array_data' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2026-0910 affects the wpForo Forum WordPress plugin through version 2.4.13. A logged-in user with Subscriber-level access or higher could trigger unsafe PHP object deserialization. The plugin alone reportedly lacks a known exploitation chain, so real impact depends on other installed plugins or themes. Sites allowing public registration have higher exposure.

Executive priority

Prioritize remediation for public-facing WordPress sites using wpForo, especially communities with open registration. The vulnerability is high severity, but practical impact depends on the site’s plugin/theme mix and attacker account access.

Technical view

The issue is CWE-502 PHP Object Injection in wpForo Forum’s wpforo_display_array_data function, caused by deserialization of untrusted input. CVSS is 8.8 high, with low privileges required and no user interaction. Wordfence notes no known POP chain in wpForo itself; impact requires a compatible POP chain from another installed component.

Likely exposure

WordPress sites running wpForo Forum version 2.4.13 or earlier are exposed, especially if untrusted users can create Subscriber accounts. Exposure is lower where account creation is tightly controlled, but still relevant for any site with many low-privilege users.

Exploitation context

No active exploitation is stated in the provided sources, and the CVE is not listed as KEV in the bundle. Exploitation requires authentication and likely depends on another plugin or theme providing a usable POP chain, which can change by site configuration.

Researcher notes

Focus validation on wpForo <=2.4.13 and the referenced debug.php change to 2.4.14. Do not assume code execution is universally reachable; the source explicitly states no known POP chain in wpForo itself. Evaluate site-specific plugin and theme composition.

Mitigation direction

  • Update wpForo Forum to version 2.4.14 or later if available.
  • If immediate updating is not possible, restrict new user registration.
  • Review and reduce unnecessary Subscriber-level accounts.
  • Remove unused WordPress plugins and themes to reduce POP-chain exposure.
  • Monitor vendor and Wordfence guidance for updated remediation details.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory WordPress sites using wpForo Forum.
  • Confirm installed wpForo Forum version is above 2.4.13.
  • Check whether public user registration is enabled.
  • Review low-privilege user accounts for suspicious or unnecessary access.
  • Assess installed plugins and themes for unnecessary deserialization risk.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Deserialization of Untrusted Data represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
