CVE-2002-0118 describes a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Infopop Ultimate Bulletin Board (UBB) 6.2.0 Beta Release 1.0. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary script and potentially steal cookies by embedding encoded JavaScript within an IMG tag in a message. The vulnerability carries a high CVSS score of 7.5, indicating a severe risk due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and potential for partial compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
