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 Resurs <= 1.3 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

An unauthenticated Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in Resurs versions 1.3 and below, allowing remote attackers to read sensitive files on the server by manipulating file path inputs without proper validation.

MitigationUpdate Resurs to a version greater than 1.3 that contains the security patch, or implement strict input validation and path sanitization on file inclusion routines to prevent directory traversal attacks.

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 Resurs is installed
    Check for Resurs application files in the web root directory, or look for Resurs in the list of installed packages or running web applications on the server.
    Affected if Resurs web application is present on the server
  2. Determine the installed Resurs version
    Locate the version information in the application metadata, such as a version file, composer.json, about page, or administration panel that displays the software version.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.3 or lower (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3)
  3. Verify the file inclusion feature is accessible
    Identify any application endpoints or parameters that accept file path inputs, such as those used for including or loading files. These are typically found in URL parameters like 'file', 'path', 'page', 'template', or 'include'.
    Affected if The application exposes file path parameters without authentication and without proper validation
  4. Check for directory traversal patterns in access logs
    Review web server access logs (e.g., Apache access.log, Nginx access.log) for requests containing '../' sequences or absolute file paths in parameters that might indicate exploitation attempts.

You are affected if Resurs version 1.3 or below is installed and the application exposes file path parameters that can be manipulated for directory traversal.

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

Update Resurs to a version greater than 1.3 that contains the security patch, or implement strict input validation and path sanitization on file inclusion routines to prevent directory traversal attacks.
