CVE-2025-60047
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 · uneditedImproper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in axiomthemes IPharm ipharm allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects IPharm: from n/a through <= 1.2.3.
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 · high confidenceThis is a PHP Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the IPharm WordPress theme/Plugin from axiomthemes. The vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate filename parameters in include/require statements to read arbitrary files on the server via path traversal (e.g., ../../wp-config.php).

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.
-
Identify if Ipharm theme/plugin is installedCheck your WordPress installation for the axiomthemes Ipharm theme or plugin. Look in wp-content/themes/ for 'ipharma' or 'ipharma-child' folders, or check Plugins page for axiomthemes Ipharm.Affected if The Ipharm theme or plugin from axiomthemes is present in the WordPress installation
-
Determine installed Ipharm versionOpen the style.css file in the Ipharm theme folder and look for the 'Version:' header in the file comments, or check the plugin header if installed as a plugin.Affected if The version listed is 1.2.3 or lower
-
Locate vulnerable file inclusion codeSearch the Ipharm theme/plugin files for PHP include, require, include_once, or require_once statements that use variables in the file path. Look for patterns like 'include($filename)' or 'require($_GET[...]' in PHP files.Affected if File inclusion code using dynamic variables without validation is found
-
Check if vulnerable parameter is accessibleIf the file inclusion code uses GET or POST parameters (common names: file, page, template, filename, path), test if these parameters can be manipulated via HTTP requests to trigger path traversal.Affected if The file inclusion parameter accepts user input and can be accessed via HTTP without authentication
You are affected if Ipharm version 1.2.3 or lower is installed AND the vulnerable dynamic file inclusion code with user-controlled parameters is accessible on your server.

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 dataImplement strict input validation and sanitization for all file inclusion parameters, using whitelist-based approaches or built-in PHP functions like realpath() to prevent path traversal attacks. Alternatively, remove the vulnerable include/require functionality entirely if not essential.
