CVE-2005-0254

Status: ModifiedLow (3.7)—

BibORB 1.3.2, and possibly earlier versions, does not properly enforce a restriction for uploading only PDF and PS files, which allows remote attackers to upload arbitrary files that are presented to other users with PDF or PS icons, which may trick some users into downloading and executing those files.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
