CVE-2020-17496: Remote Code Execution 0day in vBulletin 5.x

vBulletin 5.5.4 through 5.6.2 allows remote command execution via crafted subWidgets data in an ajax/render/widget_tabbedcontainer_tab_panel request. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2019-16759.

vBulletin 5.5.4 through 5.6.2 are vulnerable to a remote code execution vulnerability caused by incomplete patching of the previous “CVE-2019-16759” RCE. This logic bug allows for a single pre-auth request to execute PHP code on a target vBulletin forum.
