Description:
A weakness has been reported in XOOPS, which can be exploited by malicious users to bypass certain security restrictions.
The weakness is caused due to missing permission checks within the "b_system_comments_show()" function in htdocs/modules/system/blocks/system_blocks.php. This can be exploited to read the comments of restricted modules.
The weakness is reported in versions prior to 2.0.18.
