Contributor-level PHP code execution via local file inclusion
Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Sep 22, 2025
Local file inclusion in PenciDesign Soledad 8.6.8 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute server-side PHP code. The theme passes an attacker-influenced filename to a PHP include or require operation without adequately restricting it, but public advisories do not identify the affected file, function, or parameter. Contributor-level access or higher is required, and code execution requires a suitable local file, such as an uploaded file containing PHP code.
