What it is

⚡ Hold onto your code, because a sneaky mismanagement of filenames in MinimogWP could let attackers include any local file they want! Think of it like a restaurant where the chef can grab any recipe from the kitchen — if the back door is left open, they could cook up something uninvited and dangerous! This vulnerability could allow an attacker to access sensitive files on your server, potentially exposing passwords, configuration data, or even entire databases. Imagine them flipping through your recipe book, finding your secret sauce, and serving it up to everyone! It’s a big risk for any site using MinimogWP versions up to 3.9.6.

Put simply

Think of it like a restaurant where the chef can grab any recipe from the kitchen — if the back door is left open, they could cook up something uninvited and dangerous! This PHP Local File Inclusion vulnerability arises from improper control of filenames in include/require statements, enabling an attacker to manipulate file paths to access unintended files.

What to do
