CVE-2001-0475
index.php in Jelsoft vBulletin does not properly initialize a PHP variable that is used to store template information, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via special characters in the templatecache parameter.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.76%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
