7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
ArtsCore Studios CuteCast Forum version 1.2
Description:
The issue allows remote attackers to obtain passwords via an HTTP request to a .user file because passwords are stored in plaintext under the web document root.
Recommendations:
For version 1.2, consider storing passwords securely, such as using hashing and salting, to prevent them from being obtained in plaintext. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to .user files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
