DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in TopicsViewer, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "q" parameter to search.php and via the "uname"
and "reg_mail" POST parameters to lost.php (when "to_mail" is set to
a valid value) is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL
query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.3. Other versions may
also be affected.

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