## Description

MyBB (MyBulletinBoard) 1.1.0 does not set the constant KILL_GLOBAL variable in (1) global.php and (2) inc/init.php, which allows remote attackers to initialize arbitrary variables that are processed by an @extract command, which could then be leveraged to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) or SQL injection attacks.

## What to do
