CVE-2003-0394 describes a remote file inclusion vulnerability in BLNews version 2.1.3, specifically within the objects.inc.php4 file. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by manipulating a Server[path] parameter to point to malicious code hosted on an attacker-controlled website. With a CVSS score of 7.5, this vulnerability is considered highly severe due to its low attack complexity and potential for complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is no evidence of active exploitation in the wild or Metasploit/Nuclei modules, an ExploitDB entry confirms the existence of public exploit code, though community discussion and media coverage remain minimal.
