CVE-2002-1820
register.php in Ultimate PHP Board (UPB) 1.0 and 1.0b uses an administrative account Admin with a capital "A," but allows a remote attacker to impersonate the administrator by registering an account name of admin with a lower case "a."
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.38%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
