CVE-2026-28065Network attack vector

Unauthenticated local file inclusion via undisclosed input

Published Mar 5, 2026 · Updated Mar 5, 2026

Local file inclusion in ThemeREX Eject 2.17 and earlier allows remote attackers to include local PHP files through network requests. Patchstack does not identify the affected file, request parameter, or missing validation that permits attacker-controlled filenames to reach an include or require operation. The requests require no authentication, and successful exploitation can display local file output; code execution is not confirmed.
