CVE-2006-0244

23
FAUCET Score

CVE-2006-0244 describes a directory traversal vulnerability in phpXplorer version 0.9.33, specifically within the workspaces.php component. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this by manipulating the sShare parameter with ".." and a null byte to include arbitrary files, potentially leading to unauthorized file access. The CVSS score of 5.0 indicates a medium severity, with low attack complexity and potential for partial integrity impact. While a follow-up note suggests this might not be a true vulnerability due to phpXplorer's intended functionality, an ExploitDB entry exists, but there is no evidence of active exploitation, Metasploit modules, or significant community discussion.
