P-News 2.0 stores db/user.txt under the web document root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information such as usernames and password hashes via a direct request. NOTE: this might be the same issue as CVE-2006-6888.

Security readout for executives and security teams

P-News 2.0 may expose a user database file from the public web root. If reachable, an unauthenticated visitor could obtain usernames and password hashes. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, confirmed patch details, or complete affected-product metadata. Exposure is likely limited to legacy P-News 2.0 installations where db/user.txt remains inside a web-accessible document root. The structured affected metadata is incomplete, so inventory confirmation is required. Treat as a targeted legacy exposure check, not an emergency internet-wide event. Prioritize if P-News is still public-facing, because credential material may be exposed without authentication. Mitigation focus: Check vendor or archived advisory guidance; no patch is identified in the provided sources.; Restrict unauthenticated web access to db/user.txt.; Move sensitive data files outside the document root where supported..
