Technical Analysis

The vulnerability CVE-2025-67940 affects Mikado-Themes Powerlift before version 3.2.1. It is caused by improper validation of filenames in PHP include or require statements, enabling PHP Local File Inclusion. This can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code or access sensitive files by including unintended files on the server. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 8.1, reflecting high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability with network attack vector, high attack complexity, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to full compromise of the affected system, including unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, and disruption of service. The high CVSS score indicates significant risk if exploited.
