CVE-2026-52777: YesWiki: Authenticated PHP Object Injection in BazarImportAction via unserialize
YesWiki is a wiki system written in PHP. Prior to version 4.6.6, there is an authenticated PHP object injection vulnerability in BazarImportAction via unserialize. This issue has been patched in version 4.6.6.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
YesWiki versions before 4.6.6 contain a critical flaw in the Bazar import function. A crafted request may cause a logged-in user’s session to process unsafe serialized PHP data, potentially compromising the wiki and connected data. The supplied sources do not confirm public exploitation or specify the exact achievable outcome.
Executive priority
Treat this as an urgent upgrade for exposed YesWiki systems. The potential impact is severe, although exploitation requires user interaction and active exploitation is not established. Prioritize systems below 4.6.6 that are internet-facing, contain sensitive information, or are regularly accessed by privileged users.
Technical view
BazarImportAction used PHP unserialize on attacker-influenced data, creating PHP object injection risk combined with cross-site request forgery concerns (CWE-502 and CWE-352). The record describes the issue as authenticated, while its CVSS 4.0 vector states no attacker privileges and active user interaction. Version 4.6.6 contains the patch.
Likely exposure
Internet-accessible YesWiki deployments below 4.6.6 are the primary concern, especially where privileged users may interact with untrusted links or content. Exposure depends on whether BazarImportAction is reachable and exploitable in the deployment. The supplied evidence does not identify affected configurations beyond the version range.
Exploitation context
The CVSS score is 9.4 and anticipates high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, including subsequent systems. User interaction is required according to the vector. The source bundle reports no KEV listing and provides no evidence of active exploitation, public proof-of-concept availability, or a confirmed gadget chain.
Researcher notes
The central issue is unsafe deserialization in BazarImportAction. CWE-352 and UI:A suggest a victim-assisted request path, but the supplied description’s “authenticated” wording conflicts with PR:N in the CVSS vector. Researchers should verify request reachability, authorization context, available PHP object chains, and actual impact without assuming code execution.
Mitigation direction
Upgrade YesWiki to version 4.6.6 or later.
Follow the YesWiki security advisory and release guidance during remediation.
Restrict access to affected deployments until upgrading if immediate patching is impossible.
Warn administrators against interacting with untrusted links while authenticated.
Validation and detection
Inventory YesWiki instances and confirm their installed versions.
Verify every instance runs version 4.6.6 or later.
Confirm the vendor patch is present using the referenced commit.
Review logs for unusual Bazar import requests or unexpected administrative changes.
Test the upgrade in a representative environment before restoring normal exposure.
