PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in viewtopic.php in phpBB 2.0.15 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code.

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in template.php in phpBB 2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the page parameter. NOTE: followup posts have disputed this issue, stating that template.php does not appear in phpBB and does not use a $page variable. It is possible that this is a site-specific vulnerability, or an issue in a mod

phpBB 2.0.17 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass protection mechanisms that deregister global variables by setting both a GET/POST/COOKIE (GPC) variable and a GLOBALS[] variable with the same name, which causes phpBB to unset the GLOBALS[] variable but not the GPC variable.

usercp_register.php in phpBB 2.0.17 allows remote attackers to modify regular expressions and execute PHP code via the signature_bbcode_uid parameter, as demonstrated by injecting an "e" modifier into a preg_replace statement.

phpBB 2.0.17 and earlier, when register_globals is enabled and the session_start function has not been called to handle a session, allows remote attackers to bypass security checks by setting the $_SESSION and $HTTP_SESSION_VARS variables to strings instead of arrays, which causes an array_merge function call to fail.

phpBB 2.0.17 and earlier, when the register_long_arrays directive is disabled, allows remote attackers to modify global variables and bypass security mechanisms because PHP does not define the associated HTTP_* variables.

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in admin/admin_topic_action_logging.php in Admin Topic Action Logging Mod 0.95 and earlier, as used in phpBB 2.0 up to 2.0.21, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the phpbb_root_path parameter.

SQL injection vulnerability in usercp_register.php in phpBB 2.0.17 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the signature_bbcode_uid parameter, which is not properly initialized.

SQL injection vulnerability in phpBB 2 before 2.0.18 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the topic type.

The gen_rand_string function in phpBB 2.0.19 uses insufficiently random data (small value space) to create the activation key ("validation ID") that is sent by e-mail when establishing a password, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain the key and modify passwords for existing accounts or create new accounts.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the private message box implementation (privmsg.php) in phpBB 2.0.x allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the "Message body" field in a message to a non-existent user.

phpBB 2.0.19 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by (1) registering many users through profile.php or (2) using search.php to search in a certain way that confuses the database.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in phpBB 2.0.19, when Link to off-site Avatar or bbcode (IMG) are enabled, allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions as a logged in user via a link or IMG tag in a user profile, as demonstrated using links to (1) admin/admin_users.php and (2) modcp.php.

A "missing request validation" error in phpBB 2 before 2.0.18 allows remote attackers to edit private messages of other users, probably by modifying certain parameters or other inputs.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in admin_smilies.php in phpBB 2.0.19 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via Javascript events such as "onmouseover" in the (1) smile_url or (2) smile_emotion parameters, which bypasses a check for "<" and ">" characters.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in phpBB 2.0.17 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) error_msg parameter to usercp_register.php, (2) forward_page parameter to login.php, and (3) list_cat parameter to search.php, which are not initialized as variables.
