Description
PrestaShop ps_facetedsearch is a module that adds layered navigation filters. From 3.0.0 until 4.0.4, the ps_facetedsearch module rebuilds selected search filters from the request URL, and the value of a slider filter, price or weight, is taken from the URL without sufficient validation and stored in an internal filter-block cache where it is serialized and later read back with a raw native unserialize() in src/Filters/Block.php. By crafting that value, an unauthenticated attacker can smuggle a malicious serialized PHP object into the cache, and when it is deserialized, a gadget chain writes an arbitrary PHP file inside the modules/ps_facetedsearch/ directory, which is then used as a webshell to run commands on the server. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.4.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for the affected component. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of the affected component has shipped for CVE-2026-54159 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-54159 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-54159. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
