Published Apr 24, 2023 · Updated Feb 4, 2025
Reflected XSS in MyBB Active Threads Plugin 1.3.0 allows remote attackers to run script in a victim's browser via the date parameter. Public sources identify activethreads.php as the vulnerable locus but do not disclose the specific output statement or HTML context that fails to neutralize the value. Exploitation requires victim interaction and executes script with the forum origin, enabling access to or modification of data available to that session.
