CVE-2020-25145
------------------------------------------
Authenticated Local File Inclusion in device/port

------------------------------------------
[Description]
Penetration test has shown that the application is vulnerable to local file inclusion due to the fact that there is an unrestricted possibility of loading any file with inc.php extension. Inclusion of other files (even though limited to the mentioned extension) can lead to Remote Code Execution in the further analysis and opens further attack vectors.
 
------------------------------------------
 
[Additional Information]

 
Example request that allows to include .inc.php file even out of html/ web root directory.
