This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of MyBB. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Control Panel. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to construct server-side code. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the www-data user.
