MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PhpBB versions 2.0.4 through 2.0.9
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to perform HTTP Response Splitting attacks, modifying expected HTML content from the server. This can be achieved via the
mode parameter to "privmsg.php" or the redirect parameter to "login.php".Recommendations
For versions 2.0.4 through 2.0.9, consider restricting access to the
privmsg.php and login.php scripts until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the mode parameter in "privmsg.php" and the redirect parameter in "login.php" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
