A weakness has been reported in WordPress which can be exploited to bypass certain security restrictions. The weakness is due to a bug within the password reset functionality when verifying the secret key. This can be exploited to reset the password of the first user without a key in the database (usually administrator) without providing the correct secret key.

This module exploits an authentication vulnerability in OpenSite 2.1. The function init in origin/libs/user.php checks for a matching origin_hash cookie. However, this cookie can be bruteforced in at most 2^32 tries for a known username. Actually, the number of attempts could be significantly reduced knowing that we do not have to check for time in the future, and long past. This works for OpenSite 2.1 and below. It has to be executed against the root directory of OpenSite. The resulting SHA1 cookie has to be used to impersonate the admin on OpenSite putting it on the origin_hash cookie, setting all the others cookies with the default value.

A vulnerability has been reported in MyBB, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks. Input passed via the "birthdayprivacy" parameter to inc/datahandlers/user.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. Successful exploitation requires a valid user account. The vulnerability is reported in MyBB 1.4.x versions prior to 1.4.7. This modules gives to a normal user, admin privileges.
