In MyBB before version 1.8.24, the custom MyCode (BBCode) for the visual editor doesn't escape input properly when rendering HTML, resulting in a DOM-based XSS vulnerability. The 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. After upgrading MyBB to 1.8.24, make sure to update the version attribute in the `codebuttons` template for non-default themes to serve the latest version of the patched `jscripts/bbcodes_sceditor.js` file.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MyBB before 1.6.13 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the name parameter in the edit action of the config-profile_fields module.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) before 1.8.4 allow remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the title parameter in the (1) edit or (2) add action in the user-users module or the (3) finduser action or the name parameter in an (4) edit action in the user-user module or the (5) editprofile action to modcp.php.
In MyBB before 1.8.21, an attacker can exploit a parsing flaw in the Private Message / Post renderer that leads to [video] BBCode persistent XSS to take over any forum account, aka a nested video MyCode issue.
