MYBB is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability. This issue is due to 
the failure of the application to properly sanitize user-

create a malicious link containing script code that will be executed
in the browser of an unsuspecting user when followed.

The application does not validate the "gallery" variable upon submission to the 
usercp.php script.
