WordPress Netmix theme <= 1.0.10 - Local File Inclusion vulnerability

Published Feb 20, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in AncoraThemes Netmix netmix allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Netmix: from n/a through <= 1.0.10.

Analysis

Technical impact

The vulnerability arises from an improper control of filename in a PHP include/require statement within the AncoraThemes Netmix WordPress theme. This flaw allows a local file inclusion attack, where an attacker can supply a file path that the application will read and possibly execute. The impact is the potential execution of arbitrary code on the server, with a CVSS score of 8.1 indicating high severity.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are installations of the AncoraThemes Netmix WordPress theme with versions 1.0.10 or earlier. The vulnerability is present in all releases from the initial version up to and including 1.0.10.

Risk and Exploitability

Risk assessment shows a high severity CVSS score but a low EPSS score of less than 1%, and the vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA Know Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The attack vector is inferred to be local file inclusion, likely triggered by a user-supplied parameter that is propagated to an include/require call without proper validation. The exploitation would require access to a path that the web server can read, such as /etc/passwd, but the feasibility depends on server configuration.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

Upgrade the Netmix theme to a version newer than 1.0.10, preferably the latest release from AncoraThemes, which contains the fix for the local file inclusion flaw.
Temporarily block user-controlled input that is used in include/require statements by editing theme files or configuring the server to reject such values, ensuring no arbitrary file paths are passed to the PHP include function.
Verify that the inclusion vector has been closed by attempting to trigger the flaw with a test input (for example, requesting the parameter with a path to /etc/passwd) and confirming that the server does not return the local file content or execute it.
