Description Vincent Danen 2011-08-17 16:46:05 UTC 
An SQL injection vulnerability in the quote_table_name method could allow malicious users to inject arbitrary SQL into a query [1].

This is corrected in upstream 3.0.10, 2.3.13, and 3.1.0rc5 versions.  Patches are available in the advisory [1] and in git [2].
