CVE-2025-0632
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 · uneditedLocal File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in a Render function of Formulatrix Rock Maker Web (RMW) allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive data via arbitrary code execution. A malicious actor could execute malicious scripts to automatically download configuration files in known locations to exfiltrate data including credentials, and with no rate limiting a malicious actor could enumerate the filesystem of the host machine and potentially lead to full host compromise. This issue affects Rock Maker Web: from 3.2.1.1 and later
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 confidenceA Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the Render function of Formulatrix Rock Maker Web, allowing remote attackers to access arbitrary files on the host system. Combined with the absence of rate limiting, attackers can enumerate the filesystem, retrieve sensitive configuration files containing credentials, and potentially achieve remote code execution leading to full host compromise.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Formulatrix Rock Maker Web installation and versionReview web server logs, application directories, or software inventory for Formulatrix Rock Maker Web. Check for version identifiers in the application UI, configuration files, or installation manifests.Affected if The installed version matches the affected product range and the Render function is exposed.
-
Identify if the Render function is accessibleLocate the Render function endpoint in the web application. This is typically found in the application's URL routing or API endpoints (for example, patterns like /render, /view, /file, or similar paths that accept file parameters). Attempt to access the endpoint without authentication.Affected if The Render function is accessible without authentication or proper authorization checks.
-
Verify absence of rate limiting on the Render endpointSend multiple rapid requests to the Render endpoint to observe whether the application implements rate limiting. Check server configuration and web application firewall (WAF) settings for rate limiting rules.Affected if No rate limiting is enforced on the Render function, allowing unlimited request submission.
-
Test for path traversal vulnerabilitySend crafted requests to the Render endpoint using path traversal sequences such as ../../../../etc/passwd or ../../../../windows/win.ini to determine if the application permits accessing files outside the intended directory.Affected if The application returns file contents from paths outside the intended directory, confirming LFI vulnerability.
-
Inspect application logs for unauthorized file access attemptsReview application and web server logs for patterns indicating path traversal attempts, unusual file access patterns, or enumeration of system files through the Render function.Affected if Logs show successful or attempted unauthorized file access via the Render function.
A user is affected if Formulatrix Rock Maker Web is installed with the Render function exposed, no rate limiting is enforced, and path traversal requests successfully return arbitrary files from the host system.

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.
From vendor dataApply the vendor's security patch when available and implement rate limiting on the affected Render function along with strict input validation to prevent path traversal. Restrict file system permissions and ensure credentials stored in configuration files use encryption.
