An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-6255 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vbulletin Vbulletin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6255/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6255/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6255","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6255/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6255","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fmfq-vq8h-c3vf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"vBulletin forum","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated administrators can execute arbitrary SQL commands in vBulletin, potentially compromising database integrity and confidentiality.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vbulletin","vendor":"vbulletin"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in vBulletin 3.7.4 allow remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the (1) answer parameter to admincp/verify.php, (2) extension parameter in an edit action to admincp/attachmentpermission.php, and the (3) iperm parameter to admincp/image.php.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6255","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vbulletin:vbulletin","products":["vbulletin:vbulletin"],"type":"sql_injection","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6256"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6254"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-02-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"vBulletin PHP Module Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-17496","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-08-12"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"vBulletin PHP Module Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2019-16759","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-09-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"vBulletin 5.0.0 through 5.7.5 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.3 allows unauthenticated users to invoke protected API controllers' methods when running","id":"CVE-2025-48827","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-25135","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-7373","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-12720","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-17132","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-04"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote authenticated administrators can execute arbitrary SQL commands in vBulletin, potentially compromising database integrity and confidentiality.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6255/"}
