CVE-2025-71281

8.7 highEPSS 0.3%

High (8.7) in xenforo xenforo. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

XenForo before 2.3.7 does not properly restrict methods callable from within templates. A loose prefix match was used instead of a stricter first-word match for methods accessible through callbacks and variable method calls in templates, potentially allowing unauthorized method invocations.
