Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-67995 is a Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability (CWE-502) in the LoftOcean PatioTime WordPress theme (patiotime), which allows Object Injection. The issue affects PatioTime from its initial release (n/a) through all versions prior to 2.1.

With a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (Critical), characterized by Network attack vector (AV:N), Low attack complexity (AC:L), No privileges required (PR:N), No user interaction (UI:N), Unchanged scope (S:U), and High impact on Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability (C:H/I:H/A:H), the vulnerability can be exploited by unauthenticated remote attackers. Successful exploitation enables object injection via untrusted deserialization.

The Patchstack advisory documents this PHP Object Injection vulnerability in the PatioTime WordPress theme and indicates it was fixed in version 2.1. Mitigation requires updating affected installations to PatioTime 2.1 or later.
