Technical impact
PbootCMS versions 3.2.0 through 3.2.5 contain a SQL injection in the User/mod interface. By crafting input parameters, an attacker can modify arbitrary fields of any user account, including passwords and roles, effectively enabling account takeover and privilege escalation. The primary impact is the loss of confidentiality and integrity of control over the CMS.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects the PbootCMS content management system, specifically versions 3.2.0 to 3.2.5. No vendor name is provided by the CNA, but the affected product is the PbootCMS web application. An authenticated user must be able to access the User/mod interface to exploit the flaw.
Risk and Exploitability
The EPSS score is < 1% and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, so public exploitation data is unknown. The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates low severity, but the ability to change passwords and roles implies that the vulnerability could yield complete administrative access. Although the attacker must be authenticated, once the account is compromised or an existing user is granted sufficient privileges, the impact is severe. The risk should be considered high due to the potential for account takeover and subsequent system compromise.
