CVE-2026-28084Network attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via local file inclusion

Published Mar 5, 2026 · Updated Mar 5, 2026

Local file inclusion in ThemeREX Bazinga 1.1.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute server-side PHP through crafted requests. The published record does not identify the vulnerable PHP file, request parameter, or include/require call that accepts attacker-controlled input. No authentication or user interaction is required, but exploitation has high complexity and code execution requires an includable PHP file already present or uploaded on the server.
