Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation targets the file-inclusion path in index.php where the 'page' request parameter is passed to an include() call without sufficient validation (CWE-73). The CVSS vector's UI:P indicates exploitation is facilitated by passive user interaction (e.g., a victim following or loading an attacker-influenced request) rather than being fully autonomous, which is a limiting factor. No authentication is required (PR:N), and the attack is network-reachable (AV:N) against the application as deployed; however, impact is constrained to LOW (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), implying limited file disclosure/manipulation rather than arbitrary code execution. There is no fixed version to apply because the product is distributed as a rolling release with no affected/patched version identifiers.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity path/file inclusion issue (CWE-73, External Control of File Name or Path) in the index.php 'include' handling via the 'page' parameter. The supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L, score 5.3) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw, but one that requires passive user interaction (UI:P) and yields only LOW impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability rather than full system compromise - consistent with limited file inclusion rather than guaranteed remote code execution. Exploitation signals are mixed: public exploit code exists (disclosed via the vendor's own GitHub issue tracker), which raises practical risk, but there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score provided in the input, so real-world exploitation probability cannot be quantified and should not be assumed widespread. The combination of a hobby-grade, obscure PHP project with no vendor response and only LOW technical impact suggests this is a lower operational priority than its 'network/unauthenticated' labels might imply; the UI:P requirement and modest impact temper the raw accessibility. Net: a genuine but low-to-moderate priority issue, elevated mainly by public POC availability, not by confirmed active exploitation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote attacker crafts a request to index.php supplying a malicious value in the 'page' parameter to influence which file the application includes, potentially exposing local files or application source. Public exploit material has been disclosed in the project's GitHub issue tracker, lowering the barrier to reproduction. The CVSS UI:P metric implies some passive user interaction is a factor, and impact is limited (low confidentiality/integrity/availability) rather than full server takeover.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026

Path/file inclusion in oretnom23 File Management System PHP lets remote attackers influence the 'page' parameter processed by index.php's include() call, enabling limited local file disclosure or inclusion of attacker-controlled content. The application is distributed as a rolling release with no version identifiers, and the project has not provided a fixed build. No authentication is required (PR:N) but exploitation depends on passive user interaction (UI:P); publicly available exploit code exists, and impact is assessed as LOW (C:L/I:L/A:L).

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch or fixed version was identified at time of analysis; the project was notified via GitHub issue but has not responded, and the rolling-release model provides no version to upgrade to. Apply compensating controls: enforce a strict allowlist of permitted 'page' values in index.php and reject path separators, absolute paths, php:// and http(s):// wrappers; disable allow_url_include and allow_url_fopen in php.ini where feasible; set open_basedir to the web root; and deploy a WAF rule blocking traversal and wrapper sequences in the 'page' parameter. Each control has trade-offs-allowlisting may break legitimate dynamic page routing, disabling URL wrappers can affect features that rely on remote includes, open_basedir may constrain other application file access, and WAF rules can be bypassed by encoding variants. Monitor the VulDB advisory https://vuldb.com/vuln/424685 and GitHub issue https://github.com/oretnom23/file-management-system-php/issues/1 for a vendor fix; consider removing or isolating the affected file-management deployment until a patched release is available.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is CWE-73 (External Control of File Name or Path) in a PHP file-management application. In index.php, the 'page' request parameter is passed to PHP's include() construct without adequate validation, allowing an attacker to alter the file path that is loaded. Depending on PHP configuration (allow_url_include, open_basedir, file permissions), this can result in local file inclusion or inclusion of remote/attacker-supplied resources. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:oretnom23:file-management-system-php:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all rolling-release snapshots are in scope, with no version boundary available. The CVSS 3.1 assessment (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) constrains the outcome to limited confidentiality/integrity/availability impact rather than guaranteed code execution.

DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in oretnom23 file-management-system-php up to 2e3c1ebe60f121e8df4fb3f544f0e9591d9a01e4. The impacted element is the function include of the file index.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument page can lead to file inclusion. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. This product operates on a rolling release basis, ensuring continuous delivery. Consequently, there are no version details for either affected or updated releases. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
