CVE-2016-9407
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MyBB (aka MyBulletinBoard) before 1.8.7 and MyBB Merge System before 1.8.7 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving Mod control panel logs.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
