I'm using an older version of the Web Wiz forum, 7.2. We can't update as the forum was heavily customised to work with our existing systems, but I'm beginning to worry about security.

I searched, but couldn't find any indication of known vulnerabilities. Are there any for this version of the forum, and how serious?

There are yes, and you should upgrade as soon as possible to the latest version.

Version 8 comes with a member API built in so that the forum can integrate with your own sites login system.
