CVE-2000-0397

Summary

CVE-2000-0397 refers to a vulnerability in EMURL, a web-based email software. The flaw lies in the predictable encoding of user session identifiers in URLs, allowing remote attackers to gain unauthorized access to a user's email account. This vulnerability can potentially lead to significant data breaches and unauthorized email manipulation. An attacker can exploit this issue by crafting a malicious URL that, when clicked, redirects the user to a fake login page controlled by the attacker. Once the user enters their email credentials, the attacker can use this information to log into their account and access sensitive information. This vulnerability highlights the importance of secure session handling and URL encoding in web applications.
