Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in eschew.net phpBannerExchange 2.0/2.0 Update 1/2.0 Update 2/2.0 Update 3/2.0 Update 4. This affects an unknown function of the file resetpw.php. The manipulation of the argument email with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22.
