php and code are only tags allowing formatting, they are not interpreters, so no danger with them.

The CODE and PHP Tags in MyBB Editor will NOT bring any security risk for sure.
It is NO execution of code!
It is just another style for this kind of "text" to make the code readable well. You can even design the appearance of this tags by your own.
