Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion in Snow Club <= 1.1 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated local file inclusion in the ThemeRex Snow Club WordPress theme versions 1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files on the host, leading to sensitive file disclosure and potential remote code execution. The flaw is reported by Patchstack and maps to CWE-98 (PHP file inclusion); no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
Snow Club is a commercial WordPress theme distributed by ThemeRex (CPE cpe:2.3:a:themerex:snow_club). The vulnerability is classified under CWE-98 (Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program), meaning a PHP include()/require() call inside the theme consumes attacker-controllable input - typically a request parameter passed through a theme template loader, AJAX handler, or shortcode renderer - without restricting it to an allowlisted path. Because WordPress themes execute in the context of the web server's PHP process, an included file is parsed as PHP if it contains PHP tags, turning a path-traversal primitive into arbitrary local file read and, where uploaded or log-poisoned content is reachable, code execution.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the Patchstack advisory does not cite a fixed version, so administrators should monitor ThemeRex for an update beyond 1.1 and apply it as soon as available (advisory: https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/snow-club/vulnerability/wordpress-snow-club-theme-1-1-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability). In the interim, deploy a WAF rule (Patchstack, Wordfence, or ModSecurity) that blocks path-traversal sequences (../, encoded variants, php://, data://, file:// wrappers) on requests to the theme's PHP endpoints; the side effect is potential false positives on legitimate parameters containing dots. Operators can also switch to an alternative theme temporarily, harden PHP by setting open_basedir to the WordPress root and disabling allow_url_include, and restrict file permissions on wp-config.php and log files to reduce the blast radius of any successful include - accepting that these controls reduce but do not eliminate exposure.
