Technical details

A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the ThemeREX Imba theme for WordPress (versions <= 1.5.0) due to improper control of filenames in PHP include/require statements (CWE-98). An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending crafted requests to include local files from the server's filesystem. Successful exploitation can lead to the disclosure of sensitive information, such as wp-config.php, or potentially remote code execution if the attacker can upload or influence the content of a local file. The attack vector is network-based with high complexity, requiring no user interaction or privileges. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released.
