Product Description:
This is a blog system for phpBB. It features an RSS feed, trackbacks, permalinks, support for BBCode and smileys, monthly archives (MySQL only), preliminary support for PostgreSQL and MS SQL, 7 optional stylesheets, integration with the phpBB Podcast mod, and GEO meta tags. Version 2.2.1 added a nice calendar. Version 2.2.2 contains bugfixes.

Vuln. Description:
Input passed to the "permalink" parameter isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

example:
/?permalink=[SQL]

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