This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local and remote resources. 2) Input passed via the "username" parameter in index.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.0.0. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised and verified.
