MyBB Multiple Security Vulnerabilities

An attacker may leverage the HTML-injection issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, control how the site is rendered to the user, and to launch other attacks.

Mitigation:

Ensure that user-supplied input is properly sanitized before being used in the generation of HTML output.
