## Technical details

A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the Select-Themes SetSail theme for WordPress through version 2.1. The flaw stems from improper validation of user-supplied input used in PHP include or require statements (CWE-98). An attacker with at least 'Contributor' level privileges can manipulate file paths to include local files from the server. This can lead to the disclosure of sensitive information, such as the wp-config.php file, which contains database credentials. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released by the vendor.
