CVE-2018-11209
An issue was discovered in Z-BlogPHP 2.0.0. zb_system/cmd.php?act=verify relies on MD5 for the password parameter, which might make it easier for attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a dictionary or rainbow-table attack.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.98%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
