## Technical details

A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the StylemixThemes Motors plugin (versions up to 1.4.109) due to improper validation of user-supplied input used in PHP include or require statements (CWE-98). Although the CVSS vector indicates high complexity, the flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to include and execute local files on the web server. This can lead to the disclosure of sensitive information, such as the wp-config.php file, or potentially remote code execution if the attacker can upload or influence the contents of a local file. The issue is resolved in version 1.4.110.
