CVE-2025-29930Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file disclosure via unsanitized PHP include

Published Mar 18, 2025 · Updated Mar 18, 2025

Local file inclusion in ImpressModules imFAQ before 1.0.1 allows remote attackers to read server files through a crafted seoOp query. In seo.php, code appends .php to the unsanitized seoOp value and passes the result directly to include(), enabling PHP stream-wrapper paths. No authentication or user interaction is required, although randomized storage outside the web root limits exposure of ImpressCMS-sensitive files.
