Pear · Pear Mdb2 · CVE-2007-5934
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
PEAR MDB2 versions prior to 2.5.0a1
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to potentially use MDB2 as an indirect proxy or obtain sensitive information by submitting a URL string into a form field in an MDB2 application. This could be achieved by using a `file://` URL or a URL for an intranet web site.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 2.5.0a1, update to version 2.5.0a1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the interpretation of URL strings in form fields to prevent potential misuse.
