Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
VISAM VBASE Editor version 11.5.0.2 and VBASE Web-Remote Module may allow input passed in the URL that is not properly verified before use, which may allow an attacker to read arbitrary files from local resources.
