Input passed via the "value" parameter (when "page_id", "type", "forum", and "search" are set) is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.3.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
