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
Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion in HomeRoofer <= 2.11.0 versions.

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

Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion vulnerability in HomeRoofer versions 2.11.0 and below allows remote attackers to read sensitive files on the server filesystem without any authentication credentials.

MitigationUpgrade HomeRoofer to a version newer than 2.11.0. If no patched version is available, implement input validation to block directory traversal patterns (e.g., ../) and restrict file access permissions on the web server.

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 HomeRoofer version
    Locate the version file or check the application header/meta data - common locations include a version file in the installation directory, the About page in the web interface, or the HTTP response headers from the HomeRoofer server
    Affected if The installed version is 2.11.0 or lower
  2. Confirm web interface is externally accessible
    Verify the HomeRoofer web interface is reachable over HTTP/HTTPS from the network. Check if port 80/443 or the configured web port is open and responds to requests
    Affected if The web interface is reachable without authentication and the version is 2.11.0 or lower
  3. Identify the file inclusion endpoint
    Review the application routing/configuration to locate endpoints that accept file path parameters. Common patterns include endpoints with 'file', 'path', 'page', or 'include' in the URL parameter names
    Affected if The application exposes a parameter that accepts file paths and the version is 2.11.0 or lower
  4. Review access logs for directory traversal attempts
    Examine web server access logs for requests containing '../' patterns or absolute file paths in query parameters, particularly targeting sensitive system files like /etc/passwd or Windows equivalents
    Affected if Logs show successful directory traversal requests or the target endpoint returns content from files outside the web root

You are affected if HomeRoofer version 2.11.0 or below is installed and its web interface is accessible without authentication, as the LFI vulnerability allows unauthenticated file reads.

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.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade HomeRoofer to a version newer than 2.11.0. If no patched version is available, implement input validation to block directory traversal patterns (e.g., ../) and restrict file access permissions on the web server.
