I'm experiencing a critical security issue with my IPB installation (v4.4.10):
Problem: A security flaw is allowing unauthorized access to user accounts, resulting in spam messages across the board.
Attempted Solutions:
Attempted to update PHP to version 8.2 in my Docker container, but this caused functionality issues for users.
Tried updating the board, but the process times out.
Current Situation: The board remains vulnerable to this attack.
Specific Request: I urgently need a security patch or guidance to address this account compromise issue without requiring a full board update or major configuration changes (custom theme).
Constraints: A full update would require significant changes to my Docker configuration and PHP version, and would make my current template obsolete.
Please provide a targeted solution to fix this security vulnerability as soon as possible. Any interim measures to protect user accounts would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
