CVE-2025-62010 is a vulnerability classified as 'Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program,' commonly known as a Remote File Inclusion (RFI) flaw, found in the ApusTheme Famita WordPress theme up to version 1.54. The vulnerability arises because the theme does not properly validate or sanitize user-supplied input used in PHP include or require statements, allowing an attacker to specify a remote file URL that the server will include and execute. This can lead to remote code execution, enabling attackers to run arbitrary PHP code on the affected server. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 8.1, indicating high severity, with the vector showing network attack vector (AV:N), high attack complexity (AC:H), no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), unchanged scope (S:U), and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H). The vulnerability does not require authentication or user interaction, but the high attack complexity suggests some conditions must be met for successful exploitation. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, but the potential for damage is significant. The vulnerability affects websites running the Famita theme, commonly used for e-commerce and business sites, which often handle sensitive customer data and transactions. The lack of patch links indicates that a fix may not yet be publicly available, emphasizing the need for vigilance and interim mitigations.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-62010 can be substantial. Exploitation could lead to full system compromise, data theft, defacement, or service disruption. E-commerce sites using the Famita theme risk exposure of customer personal and payment data, leading to regulatory penalties under GDPR. The integrity of business-critical websites could be undermined, damaging reputation and trust. Availability could be affected if attackers deploy ransomware or disrupt services. Given the theme's usage in business and retail sectors, the threat extends to supply chain and customer-facing operations. The high confidentiality impact is particularly concerning for organizations handling sensitive or regulated data. Additionally, the remote nature of the attack vector means that attackers can exploit the vulnerability from anywhere, increasing the risk profile for European entities with public-facing web infrastructure.

Immediate mitigation steps include monitoring web server logs for suspicious include or require requests and blocking suspicious IP addresses or request patterns via web application firewalls (WAFs). Organizations should restrict PHP include paths using configuration directives (e.g., open_basedir) to prevent inclusion of remote files. Until an official patch is released, consider disabling or removing the Famita theme if feasible or replacing it with a secure alternative. Employing security plugins that detect and block RFI attempts can provide additional protection. Regular backups and incident response plans should be updated to prepare for potential exploitation. Once a patch is available, apply it promptly. Additionally, conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing on custom themes and plugins to identify similar vulnerabilities proactively.
