Hi!

I just searched the web for popular sites that use fud when I found the following: http://secunia.com/advisories/16414/

Zitat:

Alexander Heidenreich has discovered a vulnerability in FUDforum, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions.

Input passed to the "mid" parameter isn't properly validated before being used to retrieve a forum post. This can be exploited to view messages that are posted in private forums.

Successful exploitation requires that the "Tree View" feature is enabled.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.6.15. Other versions may also be affected.

Under http://packetstorm.linuxsecurity.com/0508-exploits/fudForum.txt you can find a patch for this bug.

Secunia declares this bug as: "Solution Status: Unpatched"

Bye!

Michael
