Sounds like some missing/incorrect logic to check permissions, i'm sure Tigga will get it sorted straight away.

It might be better to post this in the hack's thread.

Yes but all questions/remarks/warnings should go into the support thread/forum for that hack. The author might not read all posts on vb.org.

not really a true exploit as it doesn't cause any problems really, but at the same time it's easily enough fixed with a quick conditional

While we appreciate you informing of our members of potential vulnrabilities in software they may be using, it's not wise to post a direct link to how to exploit it. I've removed your link. Please contact the modification author with the information

Shut down your galleries huh? That's a little extreme. Yes, there is a bug with vBa Gallery, but it's not as severe as that post makes it out to be. You cannot validate/delete images that are waiting approval unless you are a moderator/admin, but there is a bug where that is possible with posts that are awaiting moderation. That's obviously still not a good thing and we will be releasing an update shortly to correct the problem (or, as Kevin said, there is a fix posted), but the problem is still not as severe as those posts indicate.
