CVE-2007-4157
Published: Aug 3, 2007
Modified: Aug 7, 2024
PUBLISHED
Description
PHPBlogger stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to download a database containing an admin password hash via a direct request for data/pref.db. NOTE: this can be easily leveraged for administrative access because composing the authentication cookie only requires the password hash, not the cleartext version.
