Livewire 3.x < 3.6.4 Remote Code Execution

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115113

Synopsis

Livewire 3.x < 3.6.4 Remote Code Execution

Description

Livewire is a full-stack framework for Laravel that makes building dynamic interfaces simple, without leaving the comfort of Laravel.

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Livewire versions prior to 3.6.4 due to improper handling of serialized data during the component hydration process. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted request containing malicious serialized data to the server, which is then deserialized and executed, allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server.

Note: Depending on the identified version of Livewire, the plugin indicates that the website is **potentially** vulnerable if it uses version 3.6.3 (vulnerable) or 3.6.4 (patched).

Solution

Upgrade to Livewire version 3.6.4 or later.
