NVD · unedited
Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in Agence web Eoxia - Montpellier WP shop wpshop allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects WP shop: from n/a through <= 2.6.1.

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 Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the WP shop WordPress plugin allows attackers to include arbitrary PHP files from the server due to improper control of filename for include/require statements. This can lead to remote code execution if attackers can upload or control files on the server.

MitigationUpgrade WP shop to the latest version. If no patch is available, disable the plugin, implement strict input validation/whitelisting on file inclusion parameters, and ensure proper web server configuration to prevent unauthorized file access.

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. Verify WP shop plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'WP shop' or check the filesystem at /wp-content/plugins/ for a folder named 'wp-shop' or similar
    Affected if The WP shop plugin is present on the WordPress installation
  2. Determine installed WP shop version
    Check the plugin's main PHP file header for 'Version:' comment, or in WordPress admin go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and find the version number listed for WP shop
    Affected if The installed version matches or falls within an affected version range (if known); if version is unknown, assume affected if plugin is present and unpatched
  3. Identify file inclusion endpoints
    Search plugin source code for include, require, include_once, or require_once statements that use variables in the file path (e.g., include($file), require($_GET['file']))
    Affected if The plugin contains dynamic file inclusion using uncontrolled input without proper sanitization
  4. Check web server access to plugin files
    Attempt to access common file inclusion parameter names via GET/POST requests to plugin pages (e.g., ?file=../../../wp-config.php)
    Affected if The server allows path traversal through plugin parameters and returns file contents or includes them
  5. Audit uploaded files for malicious PHP
    Inspect /wp-content/uploads/ and plugin directories for unexpected .php files with suspicious content or unusual timestamps
    Affected if There are uploaded PHP files that attackers could target for inclusion to achieve remote code execution

A user is affected if the WP shop plugin is installed and contains the LFI vulnerability where file inclusion parameters accept unsanitized user input that can be exploited to include arbitrary files.
