Hi, It's a long time since I've used XenForo, I've installed the latest version on my local PC to test it first... But once I put in on my website, after install are there any tips you guys can give me, such as do I need to delete the /install/ folder? and what about this file...

ImageMagick just released a patch for a serious information disclosure vulnerability. I haven't tested whether this affects XenForo, but it probably does. You should disable ImageMagick and use GD instead, if possible; ImageMagick is prone to serious vulnerabilities. If that isn't an option...

Hi guys, anyone has an idea how to protect a trial version with the highest possible security against missuse? I thought about hwid but you can spoof it. There has to be a way to secure a trial against users using it over and over again by bypassing the lock. As I said, logging the ip, hwid or...

We are planning to go with Xenforo, but security is important for us. Can you, please, describe how is it implemented. And is it secure from point of view XSS attacks. Thanks.

Currently (XF2.2.2), when a user doesn't have a password set for their account and requests a password via the "Password and security" page, they can send any number of requests without any restrictions. Of course, they can only flood their own email account in such a way, but this also...

Hi Everyone ! Though there're several thread on this, but I couldn't figure out any appropriate one for latest XF 2.2 release . So, could anyone provide information on how to configure CSP with latest XF ? (for additional info: I'm using cloudflare & adsense) .

Appears to affect all versions of 2.x; probably also affects 1.x. It's minor but can be a nuisance. What's the correct procedure for reporting details?

It does not send the code, the authentication app works but not the the e-mail.

When you report a bug to xenforo or to a developers site, then you will often need to copy the server error report from the xenforo admin panel to the forum of the developer/xenforo. This report often contains personal information like IP address, email, username. It also contains sensitive...

In particular, can we enable 0-RTT for all GET requests in core XenForo, even those with parameters? In other words, do you guarantee that all GET requests in XenForo are idempotent? (I understand that we must ourselves check all our add-ons are secure against replay attacks.) Thank you.

If you export an addon, it generates a zip file with a directory and filename that could easily be guessed (or known). This means that if an addon was exported on a live site, it would be possible for someone else to download without permission. Perhaps a random hash could be appended to the...

Hello there, So, this is the first time I have ever run into this issue. Typically I delete any install or upgrade folders from my server for security purposes. Out of the blue I get an email saying that some files were problematic. Those files are as follows: /install/index.php...

It would be great if there was an add-on for our forums that checked the users password during account creation and password change, against known breached passwords (checked against haveibeenpwned.com) and then suggests using something stronger. A website https://toepoke.co.uk/user.aspx/create...
