CVE-2005-4687

First published: Sat Dec 31 2005(Updated: )

PunBB 1.2.9, used alone or with F-ART BLOG:CMS, may trust a client's IP address as specified in the X-Forwarded-For HTTP header rather than the TCP/IP stack, which allows remote attackers to misrepresent their IP address by sending a modified header.
