Unauthenticated code execution via unsafe PHP include
Published Nov 22, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Local file inclusion in InfornWeb News & Blog Designer Pack 3.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code. The unauthenticated bdp_get_more_post AJAX handler applies extract() to POST data and passes attacker-controlled path data to include(). Code execution requires a PHP file already writable or otherwise present at an includable path, such as in a vulnerable Docker configuration.
