SQL Injection
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

DISPUTED Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) before 1.6.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the keywords parameter in a (1) dosearch action to search.php or (2) dostuff action to private.php. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, saying "Although this doesn't lead to an SQL injection, it does provide a general MyBB SQL error."

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

inc/functionstime.php in MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) 1.4.10, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted request with a large year value, which triggers a long loop, as reachable through member.php and possibly other vectors.

MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) 1.4.3 includes the sensitive mypostkey parameter in URLs to moderation.php with the (1) mergeposts, (2) split, and (3) deleteposts actions, which allows remote attackers to steal the token and bypass the cross-site request forgery (CSRF) protection mechanism to hijack the authentication of moderators by reading the token from the HTTP Referer header.

Path Traversal
AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

MyBB is free and open source forum software. Prior to version 1.8.39, the upgrade component does not validate user input properly, which allows attackers to perform local file inclusion (LFI) via a specially crafted parameter value. In order to exploit the vulnerability, the installer must be unlocked (no install/lock file present) and the upgrade script must be accessible (by re-installing the forum via access to install/index.php; when the forum has not yet been installed; or the attacker is authenticated as a forum administrator). MyBB 1.8.39 resolves this issue.

SSRF
AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L

MyBB is a free and open source forum software. The default list of disallowed remote hosts does not contain the 127.0.0.0/8 block, which may result in a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. The Configuration File's Disallowed Remote Addresses list ($config['disallowedremoteaddresses']) contains the address 127.0.0.1, but does not include the complete block 127.0.0.0/8. MyBB 1.8.38 resolves this issue in default installations. Administrators of installed boards should update the existing configuration (inc/config.php) to include all addresses blocked by default. Additionally, users are advised to verify that it includes any other IPv4 addresses resolving to the server and other internal resources. Users unable to upgrade may manually add 127.0.0.0/8' to their disallowed address list.

Code Injection
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

MyBB is a free and open source forum software. In affected versions the Admin CP's Settings management module does not validate setting types correctly on insertion and update, making it possible to add settings of supported type php with PHP code, executed on on Change Settings pages. This results in a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability. The vulnerable module requires Admin CP access with the Can manage settings? permission. MyBB's Settings module, which allows administrators to add, edit, and delete non-default settings, stores setting data in an options code string ($optionscode; mybbsettings.optionscode database column) that identifies the setting type and its options, separated by a new line character (\n). In MyBB 1.2.0, support for setting type php was added, for which the remaining part of the options code is PHP code executed on Change Settings pages (reserved for plugins and internal use). MyBB 1.8.30 resolves this issue. There are no known workarounds.

MyBB is a free and open source forum software. The Mail Settings ? Additional Parameters for PHP's mail() function mailparameters setting value, in connection with the configured mail program's options and behavior, may allow access to sensitive information and Remote Code Execution (RCE). The vulnerable module requires Admin CP access with the Can manage settings? permission and may depend on configured file permissions. MyBB 1.8.31 resolves this issue with the commit 0cd318136a. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

XSS
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

MyBB is a free and open source forum software. Custom MyCode (BBCode) for the visual editor (SCEditor) doesn't escape input properly when rendering HTML, resulting in a DOM-based XSS vulnerability. This weakness can be exploited by pointing a victim to a page where the visual editor is active (e.g. as a post or Private Message) and operates on a maliciously crafted MyCode message. This may occur on pages where message content is pre-filled using a GET/POST parameter, or on reply pages where a previously saved malicious message is quoted. The impact is be mitigated when: 1. the visual editor is disabled globally (Admin CP → Configuration → Settings → Clickable Smilies and BB Code: Clickable MyCode Editor is set to Off), or 2. the visual editor is disabled for individual user accounts (User CP → Your Profile → Edit Options: Show the MyCode formatting options on the posting pages checkbox is not checked). MyBB 1.8.37 resolves this issue with the commit 6dcaf0b4d. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may mitigate the impact without upgrading MyBB by changing the following setting (Admin CP → Configuration → Settings): - Clickable Smilies and BB Code → Clickable MyCode Editor: Off. Similarly, individual MyBB forum users are able to disable the visual editor by diabling the account option (User CP → Your Profile → Edit Options) Show the MyCode formatting options on the posting pages.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in MyBulletinBoard (MyBB) before 1.0.2 have unspecified impact and attack vectors, related to (1) admin/moderate.php, (2) admin/themes.php, (3) inc/functions.php, (4) inc/functionsupload.php, (5) printthread.php, and (6) usercp.php, and probably related to SQL injection. NOTE: it is likely that this issue subsumes CVE-2005-4602 and CVE-2005-4603. However, since the vendor advisory is vague and additional files are mentioned, is is likely that this contains at least one distinct vulnerability from CVE-2005-4602 and CVE-2005-4603.
