The vulnerability is caused due to the application not properly restricting access to the "modules/simpleforum/admin/index.php" script. This can be exploited to e.g. change the forum administrator password by posting to the script directly. This vulnerability is reported in version 3.1d. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict access to the admin interface (e.g. via .htaccess).
