Summary

CVE-2025-1913 is a high-severity Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CWE-502) vulnerability in Webtoffee Product Import Export For Woocommerce. Its CVSS base score is 7.2 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 46% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

The Product Import Export for WooCommerce – Import Export Product CSV Suite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection through unsafe deserialization of untrusted input supplied in the form_data parameter. The flaw affects all versions through 2.5.0 and is tracked under CWE-502. No POP chain exists inside the plugin itself, so the issue only becomes exploitable when another plugin or theme on the same site supplies a usable chain.

An authenticated attacker with Administrator privileges can supply a crafted serialized object via the affected import module. Depending on the additional POP chain present, successful exploitation can result in arbitrary file deletion, sensitive data disclosure, or remote code execution. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.2.

Public references point to a patched release in changeset 3261194 and updated plugin files on the WordPress Trac and plugin repository. Administrators are advised to update to a version newer than 2.5.0; Wordfence and the plugin developers have published the corresponding advisory and fix details.

EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0179 on 2026-02-03 before receding to the current value of 0.0026, indicating a temporary increase in exploitation interest after disclosure.

Vulnerability Data

The Product Import Export for WooCommerce – Import Export Product CSV Suite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.0 via deserialization of untrusted input from the 'form_data' parameter This makes…

more

it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-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.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can uncover deserialization flaws before deployment.

Input validation directly stops deserialization of untrusted data by ensuring inputs are valid before processing.

Engineering principles such as safe deserialization and input sanitization structurally prevent the weakness from being introduced.

Integrity verification tools can detect malformed or tampered serialized data after the fact.

PR.PS-02 none match
prevents

PR.PS-02 addresses only post-deployment updates/patching and cannot prevent introduction of unsafe deserialization code, yet it can remediate some instances when the flaw exists in outdated libraries or components.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

finds

Security testing includes validation of deserialization routines and the use of untrusted data, reducing the likelihood that unsafe object reconstruction will be deployed.

prevents

Requiring vetted libraries, regular updates and SAST before release reduces the likelihood that deserialization logic will accept and act on attacker-controlled serialized objects.

finds

Regular scanning of third-party libraries and timely patching reduce the likelihood that unsafe deserialization vulnerabilities remain active.

none

Mandatory malware scanning of data received over networks or storage media intercepts malicious serialized payloads before they are deserialized by the target application.
