You are absolutely right and I think that it's better if only super admins can edit fields where you can put html. Anyway, I fixed this problem on my forums, every fields are filtered, in the admin panel too.

Sorry for my poor english tongue

Now, why would an ADMIN exploit this vulnerability? After all, this extension's configuration can only be edited by admins.

Also, there's a message saying:

Please, don't use any HTML, BBCode or harmful characters.

on the configuration page, so I'm not really worried about this.

Thanks anyways, I appreciate your concern.

I know that only admins can acces to you extension but it can be dangerous anyway. Example:

You have another admin on the forum, and he wants you password, by exploiting this vuln, he could install a javascript keylogger on you forum, and he may get your password
It isn't enough to put a message saying "Please don't..."

Hope you'll understand.

Yes it is.

Yes it doesn't neutral

It isnt an error. They added a php code that adds a class name into the <li>

Ex : 

<li class="isactive"><a href="profile.php?section=essentials&amp;id=<?php echo $id ?>"><?php echo $lang_profile['Section essentials'] ?></a></li>

Whooops
