Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

Recommended fix High confidence
  1. This is a critical remote file inclusion vulnerability in the iFrame Module for PHP-NUKE.
  2. The iFrame Module for PHP-NUKE and PHP-NUKE itself are abandoned projects with no official support or security updates available.
  3. Recommended mitigation: Remove the entire iFrame Module from the PHP-NUKE installation if the module is not essential.
  4. If the module is required, disable it via the PHP-NUKE admin panel or delete the iframe.php file entirely.
  5. Alternatively, restrict access to the iframe.php file using web server configuration (e.g., .htaccess deny rules) or move the site to a modern CMS with active security support.
Caveat No upgrade path available - PHP-NUKE and its iFrame Module are abandoned projects with no maintained versions. Migration to a supported CMS is the only secure option.
