Technical description

The All Bootstrap Blocks WordPress plugin through 1.3.31 does not validate a block attribute before using it to build a filesystem path that is included at render time, allowing users with contributor-level access and above to include arbitrary local files, disclose their contents, and execute PHP where a local file containing PHP code can be reached. Exploitation requires the plugin's Lightspeed subsystem to be enabled, which is not the default.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
