This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.9.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised and to ensure server set variables are not overwritten.
