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 Majestic Support Majestic Support majestic-support allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Majestic Support: 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

File inclusion vulnerability in Majestic Support plugin allowing attackers to control filenames in PHP include/require statements. This enables remote code execution by including malicious PHP files, either locally or remotely, through unsanitized user input.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Majestic Support beyond 1.0.7. If no patch is available, implement strict input validation on all file inclusion parameters and disable 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. Confirm Majestic Support plugin installation
    Search for Majestic Support files in your web root or plugin directories. Look for directories or files named 'majestic-support', 'majestic_support', or similar patterns.
    Affected if The plugin files are present on the server.
  2. Identify installed Majestic Support version
    Locate the main plugin file (typically version.php, plugin.php, or similar) and read the defined version constant or variable. Compare against 1.0.7.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.7 or earlier.
  3. Locate file inclusion code paths
    Search source code for PHP include, require, include_once, or require_once statements that use variables or parameters from user input without sanitization.
    Affected if Unsantized user-controlled input is used in include/require statements.
  4. Inspect PHP configuration for remote inclusion
    Check php.ini or use phpinfo() to verify the allow_url_include setting.
    Affected if allow_url_include is enabled (set to On).
  5. Review input handling for file parameters
    Examine the code handling file inclusion parameters. Look for GET, POST, or COOKIE variables passed to include/require without validation through functions like basename(), realpath(), or allowlist checking.
    Affected if File inclusion parameters accept arbitrary paths or URLs without validation.

You are affected if Majestic Support plugin is installed with version 1.0.7 or earlier AND your code uses unsanitized user input in file inclusion operations.

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

Upgrade to a patched version of Majestic Support beyond 1.0.7. If no patch is available, implement strict input validation on all file inclusion parameters and disable allow_url_include in PHP configuration.
