Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-39584 is a PHP Local File Inclusion vulnerability (CWE-98) stemming from improper control of filenames in include/require statements. It affects the Eventin plugin (wp-event-solution) by Arraytics for WordPress, impacting all versions through 4.0.25. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.5.
An authenticated attacker with network access can exploit the issue under conditions of high attack complexity and without user interaction. Successful exploitation grants the ability to include arbitrary local PHP files, resulting in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected WordPress site.
The vulnerability is tracked in the Patchstack database, which identifies the affected plugin versions and links to the corresponding advisory entry for further details on the issue.
EPSS scores remain low, with a current value of 0.0118 and a recorded peak of 0.0241.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and static analysis can discover missing filename restrictions before deployment.
Validating all inputs before they reach include/require statements directly stops untrusted filenames from being used.
Enforcing access authorizations on resources limits what an included file can reach even if a bad name is supplied.
Information-flow rules can block the loading of external or unauthorized files into the PHP process.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices such as input validation and allow-listing of include paths directly prevent the weakness.
Hardened runtime configuration (e.g., allow_url_include=off) directly blocks RFI even if code is flawed.
Execution restrictions can prevent the remote payload from running, while eliminating the weakness reduces the need for such controls.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing can detect RFI but does not prevent the weakness by itself.
Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and safe include/require patterns that directly prevent remote file inclusion.
Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection and unsafe file operations.
Secure architecture principles reduce attack surface but do not specifically address dynamic file inclusion.
Secure coding standards directly require whitelisting and sanitization of filenames used in include/require statements.
Information access restriction limits what files can be read but does not address dynamic inclusion logic.
