CVE-2005-0408
Last modified
CVE-2005-0408 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. CitrusDB 0.3.6 and earlier generates easily predictable MD5 hashes of the user name for the id_hash cookie, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain privileges by calculating the MD5 checksum of the user name combined with the "boogaadeeboo" string, which is hard-coded in the $hidden_hash variable.. EPSS estimates a 4.87% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
