Description

vBulletin contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when input passed via the 'item_class' parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in the vb/content.php script, which discloses the software's installation path resulting in a loss of confidentiality. While such information is relatively low risk, it is often useful in carrying out additional, more focused attacks.
