CVE-2000-0627
BlackBoard CourseInfo 4.0 does not properly authenticate users, which allows local users to modify CourseInfo database information and gain privileges by directly calling the supporting CGI programs such as user_update_passwd.pl and user_update_admin.pl.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.46%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
