Technical Analysis
Vuln affects versions 5.0.0 to 5.5.4 and is weaponized in the form of a Metasploit module: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/pull/13512
Credit to Charles Fol for discovery and Zenofex for fast analysis and slick weaponization.
I keep thinking that it’s unlikely enterprises use vBulletin and this must be more of a risk to small- and medium-sized businesses, but looking at some of the companies that are said to be vBulletin customers, I suppose that’s not necessarily true. Article on in-the-wild exploitation here.

Report as Exploited in the Wild
What do we mean by "exploited in the wild"?
By selecting this, you are verifying to the AttackerKB community that either you, or a reputable source (example: a security vendor or researcher), has observed an active attempt by attackers, or IOCs related, to exploit this vulnerability outside of a research environment.
A vulnerability should also be considered "exploited in the wild" if there is a publicly available PoC or exploit (example: in an exploitation framework like Metasploit).
