CVE-2005-0862

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.5)—💥 Exploit

Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in PHPOpenChat 3.0.1 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via the phpbb_root_path parameter to (1) poc_loginform.php or (2) phpbb/poc.php, the poc_root_path parameter to (3) phpbb/poc.php, (4) phpnuke/ENGLISH_poc.php, (5) phpnuke/poc.php, or (6) yabbse/poc.php, or (7) the sourcedir parameter to yabbse/poc.php.

CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Base score: 7.5

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 11%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 96
Score date: 10/9/2026

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).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
