On vbulletin.com, this discussion came up regarding VB3. The vBulletin staff member acknowledged that this was an exploit and couldn't be stopped completely without a code change, but said that VB3 is too obsolete for them to be patching at this point.
So I'm going to assume that no settings would fix this problem.
I still think one is safest with the code change, as that absolutely 100% solves it (since the functionality is gone). However, the one problem with code changes is that you may lose it when you upgrade to another vBulletin version.
