[F] htaccess.txt RewriteRule [R] [C-Chris]

[frostschutz]

The MyBB htaccess.txt contains rewrite rules like this:

Code:

RewriteRule ^thread-([0-9]+).html

Rewrite Rules are regular expressions, so the ^ matches beginning of the line (beginning of the URL). Unfortunately this also means that . of .html matches any character, and since $ end of the line (end of the URL) is missing this means it will match URLs such as this:

http://community.mybboard.net/thread-458...ated/stuff

To fix, in all rewrite rules, replace .html with \.html$, for example:

Code:

RewriteRule ^thread-([0-9]+)\.html$

This way it will only match URLs that actually end with .html

Reproducible.
