Description
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2009-5077)
CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
CRE Loaded before 6.2.14 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrator privileges via vectors related to a modified PHP_SELF variable, which is not properly handled by (1) includes/application_top.php and (2) admin/includes/application_top.php.
2) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2009-5076)
CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
CRE Loaded before 6.2.14, and possibly other versions before 6.3.x, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrator privileges via a request with (1) login.php or (2) password_forgotten.php appended as the PATH_INFO, which bypasses a check that uses PHP_SELF, which is not properly handled by (a) includes/application_top.php and (b) admin/includes/application_top.php, as exploited in the wild in 2009.
