Status: ModifiedMedium (4.3)—
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in mimic2.cgi in mimicboard2 (Mimic2) 086 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified parameters associated with the (1) name, (2) title, and (3) comment sections, as demonstrated by referencing a remote document through the SRC attribute of an IFRAME element.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 4.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.10%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 65
- 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).
