Discussion
vBulletin 'Home Page' Field HTML Injection Vulnerability
vBulletin is prone to a HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.
Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
Versions prior to vBulletin 3.8.4 PL1, 3.7.6 PL1, and 3.6.12 PL2 are vulnerable.
