Security Fix
Today we are advising all customers running XenForo that a potential security vulnerability has been identified. All affected customers should either upgrade to XenForo 2.1.15 or XenForo 2.2.16.
If you are a XenForo Cloud customer, a fix has been rolled out automatically, and no further action is required to address this issue.
If you are running a pre-release version of XenForo 2.3, you should follow the instructions in the announcement thread for the XenForo 2.3.0 Release Candidate 1 release.
The issue relates to a potential cross-site request forgery and code injection vulnerability which could lead to a remote code execution (RCE) or cross-site scripting (XSS) exploit.
XenForo extends thanks to independent security researcher, Egidio Romano (EgiX), working with SSD Secure Disclosure.
We recommend doing a full upgrade to resolve the issue, but a patch can be applied manually to any version. See below for further details.
Applying a patch manually
To patch this issue manually you will need to edit one file manually and upload some changed files.
