Description:
Two security issues have been reported in e4ums NewsBoard, which may allow malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive information.
The e4ums NewsBoard database file "data.mdb" is by default accessible by anyone. This may disclose various information including the administrative username and password.
Furthermore, it is possible to identify valid users accounts, since different error messages are returned depending on whether a person tries to login with an invalid username or a valid username but invalid password.
The issues have been reported in version 2.6.1. However, other versions may also be affected.
