I'd use aquarium sealant as it is non toxic when dry.

Pop the backs off, lay the background over the back and maybe pop a staple in each corner just to hold it in place.
Put the back back on, grab the staple gun and staple it back on. Jobs a good un.

Although if you don't have a staple gun that can go through mdf that thick, then use threaded nails, or threadless screws.

I wouldn't use wallpaper paste as it usually contains fungicide
