  funny enough, on the page they state that they're running Ultimate Bulletin Board Version 5.47a 

  quick fix perhaps? (the authentication fails..)

    Ultimate Bulletin Board - Private forums security hole, by tdf (tdf () linuxbr com br)
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Well, i can see any open topic inside a private forum (password protected) WITHOUT have the password.
    How? It's simple! Using the quote feature of the Ultimate Bulletin Board!

    Look this example:


    
http://www.scriptkeeper.com/cgi-bin/postings.cgi?action=reply&forum=tdf&number=21&topic=000004.cgi&TopicSubject=tdf&replyto=0


    Hmm, it's a Infopop's help forum, using the last version of UBB (5.73)
    This session of the forum is reserved for moderators only, and protected with a password.

    Put this url in your web browser and see it with your own eyes! 
    I can see all open threads in this session of the forum just changing the number of the xxxxx.cgi, and all its 
replies changing replyto=XX 

    You noted that I can quote a msg without give the password... The problem is there :)

    c-ya!
