No useful info on the kind of vulnerability, just states "Several
security-related fixes"


Steve,

Can MITRE take this one.

I almost gave this a single CVE for "multiple unspecified" but there's a readable patch file that gives more hints:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/downloads/smf_patch_2.0-RC4_security.zip


Reversing the patches suggests the following (assuming that ONLY security patches are included in the ZIP, as stated in the initial post).


CVE-2011-1127 - guest access to SSI.php

CVE-2011-1128 - "brute force" on Load.php

CVE-2011-1129 - ManageNews.php, probably XSS

CVE-2011-1130 - improper input validation for a number in
  $_REQUEST['start'] in QueryString.php, and also $start variable in
  Subs.php

CVE-2011-1131 - unspecified query issues in Search.php, related to $createTemporary variable.
