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 axiomthemes 777 triple-seven allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects 777: from n/a through <= 1.3.

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

A PHP File Inclusion vulnerability in the axiomthemes 777 triple-seven theme (version 1.3 and below) allows attackers to manipulate include/require statements to execute arbitrary PHP code via local file inclusion (LFI), potentially leading to full system compromise.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of the theme; implement strict input validation and whitelist-based filtering on all file inclusion parameters; disable allow_url_fopen and allow_url_include in PHP configuration.

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 installed theme version
    Locate the theme's style.css file and check the 'Version:' header in the theme comments at the top, or check the theme's main functions.php file for a version definition
    Affected if The reported version is 1.3 or any version lower than 1.3 (e.g., 1.2, 1.1, 1.0)
  2. Find PHP file inclusion functions
    Search all .php files within the theme directory for usage of include, include_once, require, or require_once statements that accept variable input
    Affected if The theme contains include/require statements using variables from $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST without sanitization
  3. Inspect parameter handling
    Examine the identified inclusion code to determine whether URL parameters (such as 'page', 'file', 'path', 'template', or similar) are passed directly to include/require functions
    Affected if User-supplied parameters are used in file inclusion functions without validation or whitelist filtering
  4. Verify file inclusion is reachable
    Confirm that the vulnerable inclusion code is accessible via HTTP requests (not restricted by authentication or conditional logic that prevents normal access)
    Affected if The file inclusion code executes based on standard GET or POST requests without requiring admin authentication
  5. Check for input validation
    Review the code surrounding the inclusion statements to determine if there is any input validation, sanitization, or whitelist-based filtering applied to the parameter before the include/require call
    Affected if There is no input validation or the validation can be bypassed, allowing arbitrary file paths to be supplied

You are affected if the installed theme version is 1.3 or below AND your deployment uses file inclusion with unsanitized user input from request parameters.

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 data
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 1.3
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to a patched version of the theme; implement strict input validation and whitelist-based filtering on all file inclusion parameters; disable allow_url_fopen and allow_url_include in PHP configuration.
