My profile is a mess now. At least we're safe from the hacker now. I just wish I read this sooner, then I wouldn't have clicked on edit.

I'm not an expert at web security, but anyone mind explaining how BBCode relates to security?
Just curious tho.


BBCode converts user input data into HTML on a webpage. This is an attack vector because a malicious person can then insert javascript by manipulating the BBCode interpreter. When you can put your own Javascript on a webpage, you can do things like "cookie grab" (steal the SessionID from the user to gain access to their account) and various other things.

It's called an injection attack. Basically, since the BBC stuff interacts directly with specific code executed commands on the server that has access to databases, if you put your own code commands within the parameters where you'd normally just be putting text, you can get the code on the site to accidentally execute a command it wasn't supposed to. It's a very common hacking trick. If you wanna learn more, just google it (don't wanna broadcast specific examples here). This is why it's really important on any website that has forms and is posting data to the server to have very robust methods of checking and cleaning incoming data, but it can be tricky to do and cover all of your bases.
