PHP Remote File Inclusion
Description
The server is vulnerable to PHP Remote File Inclusion (RFI), which enables attackers to load remote files and have them executed as PHP scripts on the server side. This vulnerability occurs when untrusted user input is directly used in script inclusion without proper validation. Attackers can leverage this vulnerability to include and execute arbitrary remote files, potentially compromising the system's integrity and confidentiality.
Remediation
Avoid using user-controlled data directly in include
and require
statements and instead consider
an allow-list approach for dynamically including scripts.
If possible, also consider setting allow_url_include=Off
in the server's PHP configuration to
ensure URLs cannot be used in include
and require
statements.
