CVE-2008-6814

Status: ModifiedMedium (6.8)—

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in image_upload.php in the SimpleBoard (com_simpleboard) component 1.0.1 and earlier for Mambo allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension and an image/jpeg content type, then accessing this file via a direct request to the file in components/com_simpleboard/, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3528.

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).
