CVE-2006-4897 describes a vulnerability in CMtextS 1.0 and earlier, where the administrator password stored in users_logins/admin.txt is inadequately protected and accessible under the web document root. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to directly obtain the administrator password. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0, indicating a medium severity, with low attack complexity and a high impact on confidentiality. While not on the KEV or Hot List, an ExploitDB entry (EDB-2388) confirms the existence of public exploit code, despite no reported active exploitation, Metasploit/Nuclei modules, or significant community discussion.
