Network-reachable unauthenticated theme endpoint (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N); AC:H reflects non-trivial request preconditions; LFI to wp-config enables full CIA compromise of the WordPress instance.

Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion in Geya <= 1.15 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated local file inclusion in the ThemeRex Geya WordPress theme (versions up to and including 1.15) allows remote attackers to read or include arbitrary files on the server, leading to information disclosure and potential code execution via PHP file inclusion. Reported by Patchstack with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, though the high CVSS (8.1) reflects severe confidentiality, integrity and availability impact if the vulnerable path is reached.
Technical ContextAI
Geya is a commercial WordPress theme published by the ThemeRex group, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:themerex_group:geya. The flaw is classified as CWE-98 (Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program - 'PHP Remote File Inclusion'), meaning user-controlled input is passed to a PHP include/require construct without adequate validation or path normalization. In WordPress themes this typically manifests in template loader endpoints, AJAX handlers, or shortcode renderers that accept a file or template parameter and resolve it against the server filesystem, enabling traversal sequences or absolute paths to pull in sensitive files such as wp-config.php or inject attacker-controlled PHP if combined with a writable upload path.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the Patchstack record lists affected versions through 1.15 without naming a fixed release, so administrators should monitor the ThemeRex changelog and the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/geya/vulnerability/wordpress-geya-theme-1-15-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability) for an updated build and apply it as soon as it ships. Until a fix is available, deactivate and replace the Geya theme on production sites or place the WordPress install behind a WAF rule (Patchstack, Wordfence, or equivalent vPatch) that blocks requests containing traversal sequences or absolute paths in theme query parameters; if the theme must remain active, restrict access to /wp-content/themes/geya/ endpoints via webserver rules and harden open_basedir / disable allow_url_include in php.ini, accepting that these controls may break legitimate template loading and require regression testing.
