Description:
GoLd_M has discovered two vulnerabilities in Mole (Make Our Life Easy), which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.1.0. Other versions may also be affected.

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