XenForo 2.1.10 Patch 2 Released Shortly after releasing 2.1.10, we became aware of an incompatibility related to how some add-ons add custom CSS to the control panel. This could lead to the control panel appearing unstyled. In order to resolve this, we have released XenForo 2.1.10 Patch 2. You can perform the upgrade directly from your control panel by going to Tools > Check for upgrades (<url>/admin.php?tools/upgrade-check if you do not see the link due to display issues). You can also download the update from your Customer area and upgrade manually. (Note that Patch 1 was briefly released and has been superseded with Patch 2 to resolve this issue.)

XenForo 2.1.10 is now available for all licensed customers to download. We recommend that all customers running previous versions of XenForo 2.1 upgrade to this release to benefit from increased stability.

XenForo extends thanks to @TickTackk for reporting the issue. While we recommend doing a full...

Today, we are releasing XenForo 2.1.9 and XenForo 2.0.13 to address a potential security vulnerability that may affect any customer who makes use of our PayPal payment handler. As well as user upgrades, this may affect add-ons you have installed which process payments using our PayPal payment handler. We recommend that all affected customers running XenForo 2.1 or XenForo 2.0 upgrade to 2.1.9 or 2.0.13 or use one of the attached patch files as soon as possible. Specifically, the issue relates to a specially crafted callback (or IPN) which is then processed successfully using PayPal's sandbox validation endpoint instead of their live system. If successful, a purchase could be completed without your PayPal account actually receiving...
