VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38072/

WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed via the "event_id" parameter to e.g. the "Events" page
is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can
be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL
code.
