DESCRIPTION:
r0t has reported some vulnerabilities in K-Search, which can be
exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "id", "stat", and "source" parameters in
"index.php" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL
query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.0 and prior.
Other versions may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
