In "marks.php" file, there are some queries to the database. If some parameters miss or some strange characters are submitted, the functions that get results from the database will return an error. I can understand how full path disclosure can be an issue, however, in a production environment the PHP settings to display errors ought to be disabled. As such, full path disclosure goes away. > 3) SQL Injection > It's possible to get any content from the database by exploiting a SQL Injection vulnerability in "marks.php" file. > > This example will get the list of PHPNuke authors and the relative hashes of the passwords.

Does this completely solve the issue, of course not, but it can stop the script kiddy attacks.
