As part of our inclusion of the mobile APIÂ’s, the vBulletin templates were re-factored in how they are rendered to support the API. The $vbulletin variable was placed so that it was not part of the eval process, and subsequently out of scope for the templates of 3rd party plugins and modifications templates. Here is an example template conditional that would be affected: Code: in group 5, 6 or 7 We have...

Further to the issue that was rectified with vB 4.0.8 PL1, an additional concern was identified that may affect users utilizing IE6. The flaw may enable users to upload a script to their own profile, and viewers of that profile when utilizing IE6 may be exploited.
