Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.25%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

MyBB is free and open source forum software. Prior to 1.8.40, the Mod CP Report Center does not check permissions consistently, allowing moderators without report-management permission to mark reports as resolved. The modcp.php?action=do_reports Mark Selected as Read handler is reachable with canmodcp even without canmanagereportedcontent or canmanagereportedposts. When no forums are in scope, $flist_reports is empty and the UPDATE mybb_reportedcontent query executes without the expected permission-based limitation. This issue is fixed in version 1.8.40.
