Summary

Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in Yii 2 (versions up to 2.0.54). The View::renderPhpFile() function overwrites the internal _file_ variable via extract(), allowing arbitrary file inclusion, potentially leading to RCE or information disclosure.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can read sensitive server files or, if able to write PHP files, achieve remote code execution, leading to full server compromise.

Recommendation

Upgrade Yii 2 to version 2.0.55 or later. Avoid passing the '_file' parameter in the $params array to views.

Original NVD description (English source)

Yii 2 is a PHP application framework. Versions 2.0.54 and prior contain flawed logic in the core view rendering method View::renderPhpFile() that leads to Local File Inclusion. The function calls extract($_params_, EXTR_OVERWRITE) before the require statement that loads the view file. As a result, a caller-controlled _file_ key in the $params array overwrites the internal local variable specifying which file to include, potentially enabling RCE if an attacker can write PHP files through a separate primitive, as well as information disclosure. This issue has been fixed in version 2.0.55.
