CVE-2006-2227
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in misc.php in PunBB 1.2.11 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the req_message parameter, because the value of the redirect_url parameter is not sanitized.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.67%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
