CVE-2005-4317 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Limbo CMS 1.0.4.2 and earlier, with register_globals off, does not protect the $_SERVER variable from external modification, which allows remote attackers to use the _SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] parameter to (1) conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks in the stats module or (2) execute arbitrary code via an eval injection attack in the wrapper option in index2.php.. EPSS estimates a 5.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
