CVE-2006-5165

23
FAUCET Score

CVE-2006-5165 describes a remote file inclusion vulnerability in Skrypty PPA Gallery 1.0 and earlier, specifically within the inc/functions.inc.php file. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by manipulating the 'config[ppa_root_path]' parameter with a malicious URL. While the CVSS score is moderate at 5.1, indicating partial impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, the high attack complexity (AC:H) suggests it's not trivial to exploit. Despite its age, public exploit code is available via ExploitDB, though there is no evidence of active exploitation, Metasploit modules, or significant community discussion.
