PHPBlogger stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to download a database containing an admin password hash via a direct request for data/pref.db. NOTE: this can be easily leveraged for administrative access because composing the authentication cookie only requires the password hash, not the cleartext version.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

2.31% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 83% of all scored CVEs.
