According to this Exploit there is still no official answer from PHPBB. Because of that, I just want to post my personal little version of bugfixing this problem, with which you can obviate attacks on Users who use IE, but you will loose the functionality of [url]-Tags. # #-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------ # /templates/$template/bbcode.tpl # #-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------ # <!-- BEGIN url --><a href="{URL}" target="_blank" class="postlink">{DESCRIPTION}</a><!-- END url --> # #-----[ SUBSTITUTE ]------------------------------------ # //<!-- BEGIN url --><a href="{URL}" target="_blank" class="postlink">{DESCRIPTION}</a><!-- END url --> <!-- BEGIN url -->Function currently disabled<!-- END url --> # #-----[ SAVE FILE ]------------------------------------ # EOF I propose to call this steps off after PHPBB has released an official bugfix.
