Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2025-69400 is a Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability found in the WordPress Yokoo Theme versions up to and including 1.1.11. It allows unauthenticated attackers to exploit improper control of filename parameters in PHP include/require statements, enabling them to include and display local files from the target website.
This means attackers can access sensitive files on the server that should not be publicly accessible.
