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 vulnerability exists in the Eventin (wp-event-solution) WordPress plugin through version 4.0.25. The plugin improperly controls filenames used in include/require statements, allowing attackers to include arbitrary local PHP files via crafted requests. This can lead to sensitive file disclosure and potentially remote code execution.

MitigationUpdate Eventin plugin to the latest patched version. If no update is available, disable the plugin until a patch is released. Alternatively, implement input validation/sanitization on file inclusion logic to prevent path traversal.
