CVE-2011-1480

23
FAUCET Score

CVE-2011-1480 describes a critical SQL injection vulnerability in Francisco Burzi PHP-Nuke 8.0 and earlier, specifically within the admin.php component of its administration backend. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands by manipulating the 'chng_uid' parameter. With a CVSS score of 7.5, this vulnerability presents a high risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and potential for partial compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been identified, the underlying CWE-89 weakness remains a concern.
