Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2016-4806 affects Web2py 2.14.5 and earlier. The reported issue is local file inclusion, meaning an attacker could read sensitive files from the web server if the vulnerable application is reachable. No source in the bundle confirms active exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is most likely where legacy Web2py applications at version 2.14.5 or earlier remain internet-accessible or reachable by untrusted users. Treat as a time-bound remediation item for any legacy Web2py estate, especially public systems. Urgency rises if the application stores secrets or runs with broad file permissions. Mitigation focus: Inventory all Web2py deployments and record exact versions.; Prioritize replacement or upgrade of Web2py 2.14.5 and earlier.; Check Web2py vendor or project guidance for the confirmed fixed release..
