Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-60058 is an Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program vulnerability, classified as PHP Remote File Inclusion but enabling PHP Local File Inclusion (CWE-98), in the DetailX WordPress theme developed by AncoraThemes. This flaw affects all versions of DetailX up to and including 1.10.0. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact despite requiring high attack complexity.

Unauthenticated attackers with network access can exploit this vulnerability remotely without user interaction. By manipulating filenames in PHP include/require statements, they can achieve local file inclusion, leading to high confidentiality (C:H), integrity (I:H), and availability (A:H) impacts, such as unauthorized access to sensitive files, arbitrary code execution, or denial of service.

The Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Theme/detailx/vulnerability/wordpress-detailx-theme-1-10-0-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability?_s_id=cve details the local file inclusion issue in DetailX version 1.10.0 and provides vulnerability data for mitigation guidance.
