CVE-2025-14502Network attack vector

Unauthenticated PHP execution via template file inclusion

Published Jan 14, 2026 · Updated Jan 14, 2026

Local file inclusion in Vaghasiya Ghanshyam News and Blog Designer Bundle 1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute local PHP files. The AJAX code in includes/class-nbdb-ajax.php passes the user-controlled template value to PHP's include operation without restricting it to approved template paths. Arbitrary code execution requires an attacker-controlled PHP file already present on the server; inclusion otherwise remains bounded by local files accessible to the web process.
