MyBB: Insufficient permission check for calendar select

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 08.05.2026 Published: 18.08.2026 Updated: 18.08.2026

MyBB is free and open source forum software. Prior to 1.8.40, the calendar module does not check permissions consistently when listing calendars, allowing authenticated users to access titles of calendars that are otherwise inaccessible. The affected calendar-selection paths in calendar.php perform permission checks against an invalid calendar context before returning calendar titles. The uniquely identifying implementation details include titles of inaccessible calendars, and invalid calendar permission context. This issue is fixed in version 1.8.40.
