NVD-CWE-OtherPublished: February 17, 2004· Updated: Jun 16, 2026
Official Description
NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the vendor. Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in register.php for unknown versions of vBulletin allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML or web script via the reg_site (or possibly regsite) parameter. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, saying "There is no hidden field called 'reg_site', nor any $reg_site variable anywhere in the vBulletin 2 or vBulletin 3 source code or templates, nor has it ever existed. We can only assume that this vulnerability was found in a site running code modified from that supplied by Jelsoft.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2004-0091 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
