CVE-2008-5932
CodeAvalanche FreeForum stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to download the database file containing the password via a direct request for _private/CAForum.mdb.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (6.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
