14
FAUCET Score

CVE-2002-0377 describes a vulnerability in Gaim version 0.57 where sensitive authentication information for MSN web email accounts is stored in world-readable and group-writable files within the /tmp directory. This allows local users to access other users' accounts by reading these files. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score of 2.1, indicating a low attack complexity and impact, as it requires local access and only results in a partial confidentiality compromise. There is no evidence of active exploitation, no known exploit code available in Metasploit or ExploitDB, and while there are 10 community mentions, these are primarily GitHub references to the CVE itself rather than discussions of active exploitation.
