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.

NVD · unedited
Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in wdesco Advanced Online Ordering and Delivery Platform advanced-online-ordering-and-delivery-platform allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Advanced Online Ordering and Delivery Platform: from n/a through <= 2.0.0.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

A PHP Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the wdesco Advanced Online Ordering and Delivery Platform allows remote attackers to include arbitrary local files via improper control of filenames in include/require statements. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.0.0, enabling potential unauthorized access to sensitive system files, configuration data, or code execution.

MitigationImplement strict input validation and sanitization on all file path parameters used in include/require statements, restricting access to allowed directories and whitelisting permitted file paths. Consider using basename() and realpath() functions to normalize and validate included file paths.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the installed platform version
    Check your web application's version file, about page, or admin dashboard for the 'Advanced Online Ordering And Delivery Platform' version number. Compare it against the affected range: versions <= 2.0.0 are vulnerable.
    Affected if The installed version is 2.0.0 or any earlier version.
  2. Locate PHP files using include/require with dynamic paths
    Search the application source code for PHP files containing include(), require(), include_once(), or require_once() statements where file paths are built from user-supplied parameters (e.g., $_GET, $_POST, or request parameters).
    Affected if Dynamic file inclusion using unvalidated user input is present in the code.
  3. Inspect the include/require parameter sources
    Examine the identified include/require statements to determine whether the file path or filename parameter originates directly from user input without sanitization using functions like basename() or realpath().
    Affected if File path parameters are not validated with basename() or realpath() before inclusion.
  4. Test for LFI via HTTP parameter manipulation
    If the vulnerable endpoints are accessible, attempt a controlled test by passing a benign file path (e.g., a known configuration file) as a parameter to the suspected include/require functionality and observe if its contents are returned.
    Affected if The application includes and displays contents of files specified via URL parameters without proper validation.

Your environment is affected if the installed version is 2.0.0 or lower AND the application contains include/require statements using unvalidated user-supplied file path parameters.

From vendor data
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 2.0.0
Interim mitigation

Implement strict input validation and sanitization on all file path parameters used in include/require statements, restricting access to allowed directories and whitelisting permitted file paths. Consider using basename() and realpath() functions to normalize and validate included file paths.
