Technical details
A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the kutethemes KuteShop theme for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.2.9) due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input used in PHP include or require statements. An attacker with 'Contributor' level privileges can exploit this flaw to include and execute local files on the server. This can be used to read sensitive files such as wp-config.php, which contains database credentials. While the CVSS vector indicates high complexity (AC:H), successful exploitation grants high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released.
