An vulnerability has been identified in XMB, which can be exploited
by malicious people to manipulate existing SQL queries.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the
registration processing. A malicious person can exploit this to
inject arbitrary SQL code into the variables "$email1" and "$email2",
which can result in disclosure of sensitive information - eg.
retrieval of arbitrary users' password hashes.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" has been
enabled in "php.ini".
