"According to its version number, the MyBB install hosted on the remote
web server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A SQL injection vulnerability exists due to improper
    sanitization of user-supplied input during database
    optimization.

  - A SQL injection vulnerability exists due to improper
    sanitization of user-supplied input when creating
    database backups.

  - A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists due to
    improper validation of user-supplied input passed via
    theme names.

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to
    improper verification of permissions for forums where
    a user can only see their own threads.

  - A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists due to
    improper validation of user-supplied input passed via
    the debug page.

  - An unspecified vulnerability exists due to improper
    validation of user-supplied input in modcp.php.

  - An unspecified vulnerability exists due to improper
    validation of user-supplied input in calendar.php.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied on the application's self-reported version number.");
