Authenticated code execution via unrestricted template inclusion
Published Jul 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Local file inclusion in RadiusTheme ShopBuilder 2.1.12 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute uploaded PHP code. Elementor elements pass an attacker-controlled template filename into PHP file-inclusion logic without restricting it to trusted templates. Contributor-level access is required; successful exploitation can expose local files or execute PHP already present on the server.
