Cicklow has reported a vulnerability in Ajax Short Url, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to the "username" parameter in x/login is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows logging in as administrator without valid credentials, but requires that the members area is installed, and may require that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

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