CVE-2011-1131: Infoleak

First published: Tue Jun 21 2011(Updated: )

The PlushSearch2 function in Search.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) before 1.1.13, and 2.x before 2.0 RC5, uses certain cached data in a situation where a temporary table has been created, even though this cached data is intended only for situations where a temporary table has not been created, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a search.
