Description The issue is a file inclusion vulnerability, which occurs when an application builds a path to executable code using an attacker-controlled variable, allowing the attacker to control which file is executed at run time. This subverts how an application loads code for execution, and successful exploitation will result in remote code execution on the web server that runs the affected web application.
