What it is

🔥 A sneaky misconfiguration in Rashid Docpro could let attackers run rampant with local file inclusion! Think of a restaurant where the chef blindly trusts any order slip without verifying the dish — this vulnerability lets an attacker slip in any local file without checks, just like a cook making whatever's on a fake order. 😱 With this vulnerability, an attacker could potentially gain access to sensitive files on the server, execute arbitrary PHP code, or even take full control of the application. This is a recipe for disaster, leading to data breaches or complete system compromise!
