Summary

CVE-2026-28150 is an unauthenticated Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the Golo Framework WordPress plugin (developed by uxper), affecting all versions prior to 1.7.5. The flaw stems from improper control of filenames used in PHP include/require statements, allowing a remote, unauthenticated attacker to include and access arbitrary local files on the server. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.1 (High).

Technical details

  • Root cause: Improper control of filename input used in a PHP include/require statement (CWE-98), allowing attacker-supplied path data to influence which file is loaded by the plugin.
  • Trigger conditions: No authentication or user interaction is required; an attacker only needs network access to a WordPress site running a vulnerable Golo Framework plugin version.
  • Attack vector: Network (remote), with high attack complexity per the CVSS vector.
  • Impact: Successful exploitation can expose the contents of arbitrary local files accessible to the web server process, and depending on server configuration may lead to further compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected site.

Affected software

  • Golo Framework (WordPress plugin by uxper): all versions prior to 1.7.5

Severity

  • CVSS v3.1 Base Score: 8.1 (High)
  • Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Mitigation and recommended actions

  • Immediate: Update the Golo Framework plugin to version 1.7.5 or later, where the filename-handling issue has been addressed.
  • If immediate patching is not possible: Restrict or monitor direct external access to the plugin’s PHP endpoints at the web server or WAF layer, and review server logs for anomalous file-path parameters in requests targeting the plugin.

How IONIX’s External Exposure Management Platform Detects and Validates
Zero-Days to Shrink MTTR

1

Map your entire attack surface (continously)

IONIX uses multi-factor discovery methods, including DNS analysis, certificate mapping, metadata inspection, and more, to automatically map every internet-facing asset across your environment. This includes cloud instances, third-party platforms, shadow IT, and even forgotten infrastructure that traditional tools miss.

2

Monitor for new CVEs

Dozens of threat intel feeds using agentic technology are continuously analyzed to detect the appearance of proof-of-concept code, exploit kits, and indicators of active targeting. IONIX goes further by applying AI to proactively evaluate whether emerging vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, even before PoCs go public.

3

Identify Potential External Exposures

Not all CVEs matter. IONIX filters vulnerabilities by asking attacker-centric questions: Can it be reached from the internet? Does it require authentication? Is it being exploited in the wild? This dramatically reduces noise and focuses teams on threats that can actually be weaponized.

4

Create Safe, Scalable Exploit Validations

IONIX transforms real-world PoCs into safe, non-intrusive test payloads that can be run in production environments without disruption. These simulations are precisely targeted to the systems that are vulnerable, ensuring rapid validation without unnecessary load.

5

Execute Exploit Validations

By combining context about software stack, versioning, exposure status, and reachability, IONIX ensures that only the right payloads are executed against the right assets, maximizing efficiency and minimizing risk.

6

Drive Fast and Actionable Remediation

Results are routed through integrations with ticketing, SOAR, and SIEM tools. Issues are written in plain language, bundled into remediation clusters, and prioritized based on asset criticality, exploitability, and blast radius. This shortens mean time to remediation (MTTR) and empowers teams to act with confidence.
