Unspecified vulnerability in Hosting Controller before 6.1 (aka Hotfix 3.2) allows remote authenticated attackers to gain host admin privileges, list all resellers, or change resellers' passwords via unspecified vectors. NOTE: due to the lack of precise details, it is not clear whether this is related to a previously disclosed issue such as CVE-2005-1788.
CVE-2006-3147
This CVE was only ever scored under CVSS v2.0. NVD CVSS v2.0 base 6.5 — v2 rates that MEDIUM (v2 bands: LOW 0.0–3.9 / MEDIUM 4.0–6.9 / HIGH 7.0–10.0; v2 has no CRITICAL band). Vector AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P. CVSS v2 is an older, coarser metric than v3.1/v4.0 (no Scope, no User Interaction, no Attack Requirements), so it is not directly comparable to a v3 or v4 score. NVD has never re-scored this record under v3. EPSS predicts 2.7% exploitation probability in the next 30 days, which is reflected in EG Risk but does not lift the v2 base. Confidence: LOW.
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

EG Risk is EchelonGraph's 0–100 priority score: it fuses intrinsic severity with real-world exploitation and automatability so you can rank equal-severity CVEs and fix the most dangerous first. Higher = act sooner. Distinct from the 0–10 EG Score (severity).
