Summary
CVE-2025-2105 is a high-severity Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CWE-502) vulnerability in Artbees Jupiter X Core. Its CVSS base score is 8.1 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 49% 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 Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions through 4.8.11. The flaw exists in the raven_download_file function, which performs deserialization on untrusted input supplied via the file parameter and accepts a PHAR file. No POP chain is present in the plugin itself, so the issue produces no direct impact unless another plugin or theme on the same site supplies a usable chain. The vulnerability is tracked as CWE-502 and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit the flaw when a form containing the file-download action is present on the site and file-upload capability is also enabled; otherwise, Contributor-level users and higher can create the required form. Successful exploitation with a suitable POP chain can result in arbitrary file deletion, sensitive-data disclosure, or remote code execution.
A patch addressing the deserialization issue appears in changeset 3279676 on the WordPress plugin repository. Site operators are advised to update Jupiter X Core to the newest release; the Wordfence advisory further recommends reviewing installed plugins and themes for any that may introduce POP chains.
EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0257 on 2026-02-20 before receding, indicating that exploitation interest increased after public disclosure.

Vulnerability Data
The Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.11 via deserialization of untrusted input from the 'file' parameter of the 'raven_download_file' function. This makes it possible for attackers…
more
to inject a PHP Object through a PHAR file. 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. This vulnerability may be exploited by unauthenticated attackers when a form is present on the site with the file download action, and the ability to upload files is also present. Otherwise, this would be considered exploitable by Contributor-level users and above, because they could create the form needed to successfully exploit this.

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 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.

Security testing includes validation of deserialization routines and the use of untrusted data, reducing the likelihood that unsafe object reconstruction will be deployed.
Requiring vetted libraries, regular updates and SAST before release reduces the likelihood that deserialization logic will accept and act on attacker-controlled serialized objects.
Regular scanning of third-party libraries and timely patching reduce the likelihood that unsafe deserialization vulnerabilities remain active.
