CVE-2005-1688
Wordpress 1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request to files in (1) wp-content/themes/, (2) wp-includes/, or (3) wp-admin/, which reveal the path in an error message.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
