Summary

The Otter WordPress plugin before 2.2.6 does not sanitize some user-controlled file paths before performing file operations on them. This leads to a PHAR deserialization vulnerability on PHP < 8.0 using the phar:// stream wrapper.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could trigger PHAR deserialization and potentially execute malicious code in the WordPress context, possibly leading to site compromise.

Recommendation

Upgrade the Otter plugin to version 2.2.6 or later and, where possible, raise PHP to version 8.0 or higher.
