Hi,
I was searching around for games for my arcade and stumbled upon a post suggesting this mod is subject to a SQLi error and it is one of the most exploited SQLi's ever oO !!!
So is this true ? If so is there an exploit fix ?
The post saying this was posted on 05-18-2013 and the last update for this mod was on 27 Feb 2012 so im a bit worried now ....
I checked the source quickly (mainly the queries), but it seems safe.
addslashes is used at some places which is not safe if you use a certain character encoding (http://www.itshacked.com/344/bypassing-php-security-addslashes-while-sql-injection-attacks-is-possible.html), but I doubt anyone would ever use any of these character encodings for a vBulletin forum.

Taking a quick look at version 2.7.2+, this should not be an issue, as they are now parsing the query string for SQL commands among other things. You should be using a PHP version of 3.5 or greater as a minimum.
I will do some tests on it later this evening. :)

What do you think about letting vBulletin Input Clean handle it ??
