CVE-2024-44015Network attack vector

Unauthenticated local file inclusion via path traversal

Published Oct 5, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Path traversal in istmoplugins Users Control 1.0.16 and earlier allows remote attackers to trigger PHP local file inclusion. Patchstack has not published the affected request parameter, PHP file, or filesystem operation that fails to constrain attacker-controlled input. Exploitation requires user interaction but no authentication, and successful inclusion makes the server process locally reachable PHP content.
