CVE-2007-0543
ZixForum 1.14 and earlier stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to download a database containing passwords via a direct request for Zixforum.mdb.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.71%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
