This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code via a specially crafted parameter value. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires knowledge of valid "fid" values for forumdisplay.php and valid "sid" values for search.php. 2) Input passed to the "mergepost" array parameter (when "action" is set to "do_mergeposts"), "rid" (when "action" is set to "allreports"), and "threads" (when "action" is set to "do_multimovethreads") in moderation.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid moderator credentials. 3) Input passed to the "request" array parameter and "gid" in admin/usergroups.php (when "action" is set to "do_joinrequests") is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid admin credentials. The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.2.10 and all previous 1.2.x releases. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 1.2.11. Use another product.
