What is CVE-2018-1000502?
The MyBB Group's MyBB application is affected by a vulnerability that allows for Local File Inclusion (LFI) in its Admin panel, specifically within the Tools and Maintenance section under Task Manager when adding a new task.

Successful exploitation would necessitate that an attacker has admin panel access. The issue has been addressed and fixed in version 1.8.15.
