Technical description

c3p0 is a JDBC Connection pooling library. In versions prior to 0.14.0, c3p0 in combination with other libraries, can compose to a "sink" for deserialization gadgets. The JDBC spec's DataSource.getConnection() and ConnectionPoolDataSource.getPooledConnection() match the getXXX() form, so JavaBean libraries treat them as "properties" assumed safe while they actually call into JDBC drivers. Attackers can thus craft malicious DataSource objects whose property lookups invoke vulnerable drivers, then smuggle them in serialized form to where an application deserializes and auto-resolves bean properties — triggering the attack. This requires a susceptible DataSource/ConnectionPoolDataSource and JDBC driver on the CLASSPATH, plus a carrier that auto-looks-up JavaBean properties on = deserialization, most commonly a collection paired with an Apache commons-beanutils Comparator that sorts by bean properties. c3p0 supplied that susceptible DataSource/ConnectionPoolDataSource, which was an essential component of the trigger. This issue has been fixed in version 0.14.0.

——0The Mail Mint – Email Marketing, Newsletter, Email Automation & WooCommerce Emails plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 1.31.0 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'handle_form_submission' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. The additional presence of a POP chain allows attackers to execute code on the server. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 1.23.1.1d CVE-2026-198878.8 HIG

——14The Welcart e-Commerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.12.1 via deserialization of untrusted input in the Telecom EDY payment callback (usces_action_acting_transaction). Unauthenticated attackers can store arbitrary 'reserve' key/value pairs as order metadata during a public checkout, then invoke the callback with an attacker-chosen 'option' parameter to select and unserialize that metadata without any provider signature, source-address, transaction-identity or ownership check. A POP chain is present in the TCPDF library bundled with the plugin itself, so no additional plugin or theme is required. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, including wp-config.php, which can lead to remote code execution when an attacker re-runs the WordPress installer against a database they control. Successful exploitation is contingent on an admin printing an invoice to trigger file deletion.2d CVE-2026-52777—

——10SolidInvoice is an open-source invoicing platform. Prior to version 3.0.1, the `DataGrid` LiveComponent deserializes a `context` prop value using PHP's `unserialize()` after receiving it from the client. Because the prop is marked `writable: true`, an authenticated attacker can supply an arbitrary PHP serialized payload. Version 3.0.1 fixes the issue.2d CVE-2026-854084.3 MED

——4A vulnerability was determined in Eleveo Quality Management 9.7.0. Impacted is an unknown function of the file /enc-fwk-data/api/v3/conversations/<ID>/events of the component Conversation Handler. This manipulation of the argument createdBy causes dynamically-determined object attributes. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.2d CVE-2026-197956.2 MED
