Severity by source
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Remote unauthenticated LFI (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N); AC:H reflects the specific parameter/traversal precondition; primary impact is file disclosure (C:H), with I/A only via secondary chains, hence I:L/A:L.
Primary rating from Vendor (Patchstack).

Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion in Aperitif <= 1.5 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated local file inclusion in the Aperitif WordPress theme (versions up to and including 1.5) by elated-themes allows remote attackers to coerce the PHP include/require chain into loading attacker-controlled paths without credentials or user interaction. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the high CIA impact and unauthenticated network reach make it a meaningful supply-chain risk for sites using this commercial theme. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a WordPress installation with the Aperitif theme at version ≤1.5 actively installed (not merely present in the themes directory - the vulnerable include path must be reachable via the theme's front-end or AJAX handlers). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mixed: CVSS 8.1 with AV:N/PR:N/UI:N points to remote unauthenticated reach, but AC:H tempers it - Patchstack typically assigns AC:H when a non-trivial precondition (specific parameter, traversal sequence, or chained request) is needed. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker scanning the internet fingerprints WordPress sites running the Aperitif theme (visible via /wp-content/themes/aperitif/ asset paths) and issues a crafted HTTP request to a theme endpoint whose parameter is passed into a PHP include, embedding a traversal sequence to read /var/www/html/wp-config.php. With the disclosed DB credentials and secret keys, the attacker authenticates to MySQL or forges WordPress auth cookies to gain admin access and deploys a backdoor plugin. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data - the Patchstack record only enumerates affected versions ≤1.5 without naming a fixed release, so administrators should monitor the elated-themes ThemeForest/vendor page and the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/theme/aperitif/vulnerability/wordpress-aperitif-theme-1-5-local-file-inclusion-vulnerability) for an updated build above 1.5 and upgrade as soon as it is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Conduct inventory of all WordPress instances using Aperitif theme (versions ≤1.5) and assess criticality; consider temporarily disabling the theme or taking affected sites offline if no immediate alternative theme is available. …
