AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP. AncoraThemes Saveo theme allows a local file inclusion, meaning an attacker could supply a crafted filename that causes the server to include an arbitrary local file. If the attacker can inject PHP code, this could lead to disclosure of sensitive files, modification of server files or remote code execution, impacting confidentiality, integrity and potentially availability of the WordPress site.

Affected Systems

AncoraThemes "Saveo" theme for WordPress is impacted. Versions from n/a through 1.1.2 contain the flaw; no other versions are listed as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 8.1, indicating a high severity. The EPSS score is less than 1%, suggesting that exploitation is currently unlikely, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is local: an attacker would need to craft a request to the theme that passes a filename, but depending on how the theme exposes the parameter, the LFI could be triggered via a web request. Successful exploitation would require sufficient input control or server permissions, and could provide arbitrary code execution.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Saveo theme to a version newer than 1.1.2 to apply the vendor‑supplied fix.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, temporarily disable or deactivate the Saveo theme to prevent the vulnerable code paths from being triggered.
  • Configure the PHP environment to mitigate the risk of local file inclusion by ensuring allow_url_include is Off, applying secure open_basedir restrictions, and validating or whitelisting any filename parameters before inclusion.
