Discussion
MyBB AJAX Chat Plugin 'chat_frame.php' HTML Injection Vulnerability
The AJAX Chat plugin for MyBB is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
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.
AJAX Chat 1.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
