CVE-2013-4429
Status: ModifiedMedium (4)—
Mahara before 1.5.12, 1.6.x before 1.6.7, and 1.7.x before 1.7.3 does not properly restrict access to artefacts, which allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary artefacts via the (1) artefact id in an upload action when creating a journal or (2) instconf_artefactid_selected[ID] parameter in an upload action when editing a block.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 4
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.11%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 65
- Score date: 10/7/2026
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).
