This issue is caused when an application builds a path to executable code using an attacker-controlled variable in a way that allows the attacker to control which file is executed at run time. This file inclusion vulnerability subverts how an application loads code for execution. Successful exploitation of a file inclusion vulnerability will result in remote code execution on the web server that runs the affected web application.","published":"2017-06-26T21:29:00.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T01:22:09.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"secure@symantec.com","cvss":{"version":"3.0","score":6.6,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-94"],"affected":["symantec/messaging gateway"],"epss":{"score":0.02503,"percentile":0.84636,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.50%).
