CVE-2008-1862
ExBB Italia 0.22 and earlier only checks GET requests that use the QUERY_STRING for certain path manipulations, which allows remote attackers to bypass this check via (1) POST or (2) COOKIE variables, a different vector than CVE-2006-4488.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.08%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
