action_public/search.php in Invision Power Board (IPB) 2.1.x and 2.0.x before 20060425 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a search with a crafted value of the lastdate parameter, which alters the behavior of a regular expression to add a "#e" (execute) modifier.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2006-2059 is an old Invision Power Board search flaw that could let a remote attacker run PHP code on a vulnerable forum. The risk matters mainly where legacy IPB 2.0.x or 2.1.x systems remain internet-facing and unpatched. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Invision Power Board 2.0.x or 2.1.x deployments, especially public forums not updated after 2006-04-25. The source bundle does not identify other affected products or supported branches. Treat as urgent only if legacy IPB is still present. Remote code execution against a public forum can become server compromise, but modern environments without IPB 2.0.x or 2.1.x are not implicated by the bundle. Mitigation focus: Inventory all Invision Power Board deployments and confirm exact version/build date.; Upgrade vulnerable IPB 2.0.x or 2.1.x builds using vendor guidance.; Retire or isolate unsupported legacy forums from the public internet..
