CVE-2005-4371 describes an information disclosure vulnerability in Acidcat CMS versions 2.1.13 and earlier, where the application's database (acidcat.mdb) is stored under the web root with inadequate access controls. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to directly download the database, potentially exposing sensitive information. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0, indicating a medium severity, and is easily exploitable over the network with low attack complexity, leading to a compromise of confidentiality. While not actively exploited in the wild or on the CISA KEV catalog, public exploit code exists on ExploitDB, though there is no evidence of significant community discussion or media coverage.
