CVE-2009-2216

Status: AnalyzedMedium (6.1)—💥 Exploit

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in CMD_REDIRECT in DirectAdmin 1.33.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the URI in a view=advanced request.

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).

💥 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.
