You need an authenticated session to exploit the following vulnerabilities.  
  
2) SQL Injection:  
POST: admin.php?page=mfgroups&mingleforum_Action=usergroups  
delete_usergroups: Delete  
dele_usrgrp%5B%5D: 1 [SQLI]   
  
Vulnerable code:  
  
function delete_usergroups(){  
if (isset($_POST['delete_usergroups'])){  
global $wpdb, $table_prefix;  
$delete_usrgrp = $_POST['delete_usrgrp'];  
$groups = "";  
$count = count($delete_usrgrp);  
for($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){  
$wpdb->query("DELETE FROM ".$table_prefix."forum_usergroups WHERE id = {$delete_usrgrp[$i]}");  
$wpdb->query("DELETE FROM ".$table_prefix."forum_usergroup2user WHERE `group` = {$delete_usrgrp[$i]}");  
}  
return true;  
}  
return false;  
  
2) SQL Injection:  
POST: admin.php?page=mfgroups&mingleforum_action=usergroups&do=add_user_togroup togroupusers: users  
usergroup: bar [SQLI]  
add_user_togroup: Add+users  
  
Vulnerable code:  
  
$group = $_POST['usergroup'];  
---  
$msg = __("User", "mingleforum")." \"$user\" ".__("added successfully", "mingleforum")."<br />";  
$sql = "INSERT INTO ".$table_prefix."forum_usergroup2user (user_id, `group`) VALUES('$id', '$group')";  
$wpdb->query($sql);  
++$added;  
  
2) Stored XSS:  
admin.php?page=mingle-forum   
  
Some options are not escaped so you can inject a payload in the admin interface.  
Notice that every option is passed trough update_option() before being saved in   
the db so no sqli here  
  
Vulnerable code:  
  
'forum_posts_per_page' => $wpdb->escape($_POST['forum_posts_per_page']),  
'forum_threads_per_page' => $wpdb->escape($_POST['forum_threads_per_page']),  
'forum_require_registration' => $_POST['forum_require_registration'],  
'forum_show_login_form' => $_POST['forum_show_login_form'],  
'forum_date_format' => $wpdb->escape($_POST['forum_date_format']),  
'forum_use_gravatar' => $_POST['forum_use_gravatar'],  
'forum_show_bio' => $_POST['forum_show_bio'],  
'forum_skin' => $op['forum_skin'],  
'forum_use_rss' => $_POST['forum_use_rss'],  
'forum_use_seo_friendly_urls' => $_POST['forum_use_seo_friendly_urls'],  
'forum_allow_image_uploads' => $_POST['forum_allow_image_uploads'],  
'notify_admin_on_new_posts' => $_POST['notify_admin_on_new_posts'],  
'set_sort' => $op['set_sort'],  
'forum_use_spam' => $_POST['forum_use_spam'],  
'forum_use_bbcode' => $_POST['forum_use_bbcode'],  
'forum_captcha' => $_POST['forum_captcha'],  
'hot_topic' => $_POST['hot_topic'],  
'veryhot_topic' => $_POST['veryhot_topic'],  
'forum_display_name' => $_POST['forum_display_name'],  
'level_one' => $_POST['level_one'],  
'level_two' => $_POST['level_two'],  
'level_three' => $_POST['level_three'],  
'level_newb_name' => $_POST['level_newb_name'],  
'level_one_name' => $_POST['level_one_name'],  
'level_two_name' => $_POST['level_two_name'],  
'level_three_name' => $_POST['level_three_name'],  
'forum_db_version' => $op['forum_db_version'],  
'forum_disabled_cats' => explode(",",$_POST['forum_disabled_cats'])  
  
3) Stored XSS and SQLI:  
admin.php?page=mfstructure  
  
Adding a new forum both name and description fields are not sanitized so   
stored xss payload in admin interface AND forum pages is possible.  
They are escaped only for sqli except for add_forum_group_id which is exploitable  
  
Vulnerable code:  
  
$add_forum_description = $wpdb->escape($_POST['add_forum_description']);  
$add_forum_name = $wpdb->escape($_POST['add_forum_name']);  
$add_forum_group_id = $_POST['add_forum_group_id'];  
---  
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO ".$table_prefix."forum_forums (name, description, parent_id, sort)   
VALUES('$add_forum_name', '$add_forum_description', '$add_forum_group_id', '$max')");  
  
4) Stored XSS:  
admin.php?page=mfads  
  
Every textarea input is not sanitized and can lead to stored xss payloads in admin interface  
and forums pages (this is somehow intended behavior since HTML is allowed but still...)  
i.e: "></textarea>[XSS]  
  
Vulnerable code:  
  
'mf_ad_above_forum_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_on'],  
'mf_ad_above_forum' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_forum_text'],  
'mf_ad_below_forum_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_on'],  
'mf_ad_below_forum' => $_POST['mf_ad_below_forum_text'],  
'mf_ad_above_branding_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_on'],  
'mf_ad_above_branding' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_branding_text'],  
'mf_ad_above_info_center_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_on'],  
'mf_ad_above_info_center' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_info_center_text'],  
'mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_on'],  
'mf_ad_above_quick_reply' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_quick_reply_text'],  
'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_on'],  
'mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs' => $_POST['mf_ad_above_breadcrumbs_text'],  
'mf_ad_below_first_post_on' => $_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_on'],  
'mf_ad_below_first_post' => $_POST['mf_ad_below_first_post_text'],  
'mf_ad_custom_css' => $_POST['mf_ad_custom_css']
