CVE-2007-0689
CVSS v2.0
5.0
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
MyBB version 1.2.4
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information. This can be achieved via the
action[] parameter to "member.php", the imagehash[] parameter to "captcha.php", and a direct request to "inc/datahandlers/event.php". These actions reveal the installation path in the resulting error message.Recommendations
For MyBB version 1.2.4, consider restricting access to the "member.php" and "captcha.php" scripts, and avoid direct requests to "inc/datahandlers/event.php" until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, consider modifying the error handling in "inc/datahandlers/event.php" to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information.
