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 unfoldwp Blogvy blogvy allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Blogvy: from n/a through <= 1.0.7.

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 · moderate confidence

The Blogvy plugin <= 1.0.7 contains a PHP Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability where user-supplied input is not properly validated before being used in include/require statements. This allows attackers to include arbitrary local files from the server, potentially leading to sensitive data exposure (e.g., configuration files, credentials) or remote code execution if writable paths can be accessed.

MitigationImplement strict input validation with allowlisting for file paths, avoid using user input directly in include/require statements, and upgrade to a patched version if available. Web application firewalls (WAF) can provide temporary mitigation.

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 if Blogvy plugin is installed
    Check your WordPress plugin directory or access the plugins admin panel to confirm the Blogvy plugin is present
    Affected if The Blogvy plugin is installed on the WordPress site
  2. Determine installed Blogvy version
    Access the plugin settings page in WordPress admin, or inspect the plugin header in the main plugin file (typically includes 'Version: x.x.x' comment)
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.7 or lower, or the version cannot be determined (assume affected)
  3. Locate the vulnerable file inclusion code
    Search the plugin source files for include, require, include_once, or require_once statements that use variables without sanitization (e.g., include($var), require($_GET['param']))
    Affected if User-controlled parameters are used directly in include/require statements without validation
  4. Identify exposed input vectors
    Review plugin PHP files for parameters passed via GET, POST, or request variables that flow into file inclusion functions
    Affected if URL parameters or form inputs can be manipulated to control which files are included
  5. Test for LFI exploitability
    If the vulnerable parameter is identified, attempt to include a known local file (e.g., ../../wp-config.php or /etc/passwd) using the affected parameter in a request
    Affected if The server returns content from the targeted file, confirming arbitrary file inclusion is possible

You are affected if the Blogvy plugin version is 1.0.7 or lower AND user-supplied input can control which files are included via include/require statements without validation.
