CVE-2025-0956
WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

The WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart plugin for WordPress contains a PHP Object Injection vulnerability (CVE-2025-0956) affecting all versions up to and including 24.3.0. The vulnerability exists due to unsafe deserialization of untrusted input from the 'raccookieguestemail' cookie, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject PHP Objects (NVD, CVE Mitre).

Technical details

The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the 'raccookieguestemail' cookie value, which is deserialized without proper validation. While the plugin itself does not contain a known POP (Property-Oriented Programming) chain, the vulnerability could be exploited if another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the target system. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 score of 8.1 HIGH (NVD).

Impact

If successfully exploited in conjunction with a POP chain from another installed plugin or theme, this vulnerability could allow attackers to perform various malicious actions including deletion of arbitrary files, retrieval of sensitive data, or execution of arbitrary code on the affected system (NVD).

Mitigation and workarounds

Users should upgrade to a version newer than 24.3.0 when available. As of the vulnerability disclosure, no patched version has been released. Site administrators should carefully evaluate the necessity of having this plugin installed and consider temporarily disabling it if not critical to operations (NVD).
