[Bug Description and Proof of Concept]

- eCardMAX suffers from a SQL Injection vulnerability. Input passed via the 'row_number' GET parameter is not properly 
sanitised before being returned to the user or used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting 
arbitrary SQL code.

- Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities were also discovered. The issue is triggered when input passed via multiple parameters 
is not properly sanitized before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's 
browser session in context of an affected site.
