DeluxeBB before 1.08 lets attackers run malicious scripts

CVE-2006-3795 · published 20 years ago
Summary

The DeluxeBB forum software versions earlier than 1.08 can be tricked into executing unwanted web code when a visitor’s browser receives specially crafted data in a cookie or a link parameter. This could let an attacker display fake messages, steal login details, or change what users see on the forum. Upgrade to version 1.08 or later, or apply the vendor’s recommended patches, to stop the risk.
