wpForo 2.4.14 contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in Topics::get_topics() where the ORDER BY clause relies on ineffective esc_sql() sanitization on unquoted identifiers. Attackers exploit the wpfob parameter with CASE WHEN payloads to perform blind boolean extraction of credentials from the WordPress database.
wpForo Forum 2.4.14 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows administrators to inject persistent JavaScript via forum description fields echoed without output escaping across multiple theme template files. On multisite installations or with a compromised admin account, attackers set a forum description containing HTML event handlers that execute when any user views the forum listing.
wpForo Forum 2.4.14 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows script injection via forum URL data output into an inline script block using json_encode without the JSON_HEX_TAG flag. Attackers set a forum slug containing a closing script tag or unescaped single quote to break out of the JavaScript string context and execute arbitrary script in all visitors' browsers.

Attackers submit a valid nonce with an arbitrary topic ID to bypass the moderator permission requirement and disrupt forum discussions.
wpForo Forum 2.4.14 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows authenticated subscribers to approve or unapprove any forum post via the wpforo_approve_ajax AJAX handler. Attackers exploit the nonce-only check by submitting a valid nonce with an arbitrary post ID to bypass moderation controls entirely.

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Include, Server-Side Request Forgery, and PHAR Deserialization in versions up to, and including, 2.1.7. This is due to the insecure use of file_get_contents without appropriate verification of the data being supplied to the function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions such as a subscriber, to retrieve the contents of files like wp-config.php hosted on the system, perform a deserialization attack and possibly achieve remote code execution, and make requests to internal services.

Attackers could also make logged in users post arbitrary comment.
The Comments – wpDiscuz WordPress plugin through 7.3.0 does not properly sanitise or escape the Follow and Unfollow messages before outputting them in the page, which could allow high privilege users to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.
The wpForo Forum WordPress plugin before 1.9.7 did not validate the redirect_to parameter in the login form of the forum, leading to an open redirect issue after a successful login.
