Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 13, 2026
Medilink-Core versions before 2.0.7 contain a local file inclusion vulnerability in PHP that allows authenticated attackers to read arbitrary files on the affected system through improper handling of file inclusion statements. An attacker with valid credentials can exploit this weakness to access sensitive information without requiring user interaction. No patch is currently available for this vulnerability.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in RadiusTheme Medilink-Core medilink-core allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Medilink-Core: from n/a through < 2.0.7.
Executive ViewAI
Medilink-Core versions prior to 2.0.7 contain a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows authenticated users with valid credentials to read arbitrary files on affected systems, potentially exposing sensitive patient data, configuration files, and system credentials. This vulnerability directly impacts data confidentiality and compliance with healthcare data protection requirements, requiring immediate patching across all Medilink-Core deployments.
Apply vendor patch. If patch deployment is delayed: (1) Restrict Medilink-Core access to only essential authenticated users pending upgrades; (2) Monitor file access logs for suspicious read patterns on sensitive files (/etc/passwd, configuration directories, database credentials); (3) Segment Medilink-Core systems from sensitive data repositories; (4) Implement web application firewall rules to block suspicious file inclusion patterns if application-level filtering is available.

Priority Score
Attack Technique
Local File Inclusion vulnerabilities occur when an application accepts user-controlled input to specify which file should be loaded or executed, typically through functions like PHP's `include()`, `require()`, or `fopen()`.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
