Official Description
SQL injection vulnerability in rss.php in MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the comma parameter. NOTE: it is not clear from the original report how this attack can succeed, since the demonstration URL uses a variable that is overwritten with static data in the extracted source code.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2006-2589 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.
