Discussion
MXBB KB_Mods Module KB_Constants.PHP Multiple File Include Vulnerabilities
The mxBB kb_mods module is prone to a local file-include vulnerability and a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.
Exploiting these issues may allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive information or to compromise the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.
Version 2.0.2 is vulnerable to these issues; other versions may also be affected.
