VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38096/

DESCRIPTION:
alnjm33 has reported a vulnerability in Deviant Art Clone, which can
be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "seid" parameter to index.php (if "mode" is set
to "forums" and "act" to "viewcat") is not properly sanitised before
being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL
queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
