      vBulletin Information Disclosure (backup.php)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    " <http://www.vbulletin.com/> vBulletin is a powerful, scalable and fully
    customizable forums package for your web site." Insufficient protection by
    the backup mechanism allows users to obtain SQL dumps of vBulletin.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable Systems:
     * vBulletin Version 3.0

    The 'backup.php' script creates a database backup file that is not
    password protected and is not encrypted. If the administrator selects the
    same directory as the forum for the location of the backup file, then a
    remote user that can guess the filename can download the file to obtain
    usernames, hashed passwords, and other information.
