High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ADN Forum versions 1.0b and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain sysop access. This is achieved by composing a fpusuario cookie with a specific string format, including an initial 'sysop:' string, an arbitrary password field, and a final ':sysop:0' string.

Recommendations For ADN Forum versions 1.0b and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the authentication mechanism until a patch is available. Avoid using the fpusuario cookie in a way that could allow unauthorized access. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
