DescriptionCVE.org
Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') vulnerability in Edge-Themes Aalto aalto allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Aalto: from n/a through <= 1.8.
Executive ViewAI
The Edge-Themes 'Aalto' WordPress theme (versions through 1.8) contains a local file inclusion vulnerability (CVE-2026-57788) with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Authenticated users can read sensitive server files and potentially execute PHP code, exposing organizations to configuration file theft and unauthorized site access through any compromised or low-privilege user account.
Within 24 hours: identify all WordPress installations using Edge-Themes 'Aalto' version 1.8 or earlier; disable the theme on all non-business-critical sites and restrict administrative access by IP whitelist. Within 7 days: deploy Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to block directory traversal and PHP file inclusion patterns; enable enhanced logging on remaining affected installations. Within 30 days: continuously monitor vendor advisory for patch release; if no patch is released within 30 days, execute migration plan to replace the theme with a maintained alternative.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Restrict theme functionality via WAF rules blocking file inclusion payloads; (2) Enforce principle of least privilege by removing unnecessary user roles (Contributor, Author) that could be compromised; (3) Implement file integrity monitoring on critical files (wp-config.php, database configuration); (4) Disable the theme entirely on non-essential properties; (5) Review audit logs for suspicious file-access patterns.

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.
