In Woltlab Burning Board Lite(1.0.2) is a SQL-Injection Vulnerability in file:
search.php :
Line: 510-515

if(!$savepostids) eval("error(\"".$tpl-
>get("error_searchnoresult").
"\");");
 $result=$db->query_first("SELECT searchid FROM bb".$n."_searchs WHERE
postids='$savepostids' AND showposts='$_POST[showposts]' AND
sortby='$_POST[sortby]' AND sortorder='$_POST[sortorder]' AND
userid='$wbbuserdata[userid]' AND ipaddress='$REMOTE_ADDR'");
 if($result['searchid']) {
  header("Location:
search.php?searchid=$result[searchid]&sid=$session[hash]");
  exit();
 }

There no addslashes()  in $_POST[showposts], $_POST[sortby].
$_POST[sortorder].
