CVE-2024-13777

CWE-502Published: March 5, 2025· Updated: Jun 17, 2026

9.8

CVSS v3.1

Official Description

The ZoomSounds - WordPress Wave Audio Player with Playlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 6.91 via deserialization of untrusted input from the 'margs' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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.

Risk Analysis

The ZoomSounds WordPress plugin is susceptible to PHP object injection via the margs parameter, potentially allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute code if a POP chain is present. This critical 9.8-rated vulnerability highlights the risks of insecure deserialization.

There is no public exploit known, and the vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog. It is remotely exploitable with low attack complexity.

Recommended Action

Update the ZoomSounds plugin to a version beyond 6.91 and ensure no vulnerable POP chains are present in the environment.

Generated by the CTIWATCH analysis pipeline from this CVE's metadata (CVSS, EPSS, KEV status, exploit intelligence). Verify against vendor advisories before acting.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2024-13777 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.

The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.

From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-502): Insecure deserialization vulnerabilities allow attackers to inject malicious objects during deserialization, potentially enabling remote code execution.
