MyBB: Insufficient permission check for calendar select

Published Aug 18, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
MyBB is free and open source forum software. Prior to 1.8.40, the calendar module does not check permissions consistently when listing calendars, allowing authenticated users to access titles of calendars that are otherwise inaccessible. The affected calendar-selection paths in calendar.php perform permission checks against an invalid calendar context before returning calendar titles. The uniquely identifying implementation details include titles of inaccessible calendars, and invalid calendar permission context. This issue is fixed in version 1.8.40.
