I have been informed by a colleague who has looked into this that the specific problem that was causing the MySQL type of errors to occur can be addressed with a code update to the page.

On the products results page update the code that is on lines 75-91

from this:

php:
<?php

if ( isset($_GET["Search"]))  {
  
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Cat"]="";
  if (isset(
$_GET["ProductCategoryID"]))  {
    if (
$WADbSearch1->whereClause != "")  {
      
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= " AND ";
    } else  {
      
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= " WHERE ";
    }
    
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= "ProductID IN (SELECT ProductID FROM ps3_productcategories WHERE (CategoryID = ".implode($_GET["ProductCategoryID"]," OR CategoryID = ")."))";
    
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Results"]=$WADbSearch1->whereClause;
    if (
sizeof($_GET["ProductCategoryID"]) == 1)  {
      
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Cat"]=$_GET["ProductCategoryID"][0];
    }
  }
}
?>



to this

php:
<?php 

if ( isset($_GET["Search"]))  { 
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Cat"]=""
if (isset(
$_GET["ProductCategoryID"]))  { 
  if (
$WADbSearch1->whereClause != "")  { 
     
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= " AND "
  } else  { 
     
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= " WHERE "
  } 
   for (
$x=0$x<sizeof($_GET["ProductCategoryID"]); $x++)  { 
        
$_GET["ProductCategoryID"][$x] = intval($_GET["ProductCategoryID"][$x]); 
   } 
  
$WADbSearch1->whereClause .= "ProductID IN (SELECT ProductID FROM ps3_productcategories WHERE (CategoryID = ".implode($_GET["ProductCategoryID"]," OR CategoryID = ")."))"
  
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Results"]=$WADbSearch1->whereClause
  if (
sizeof($_GET["ProductCategoryID"]) == 1)  { 
     
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_Products_Cat"]=$_GET["ProductCategoryID"][0]; 
  } 

}
?>



Please give this a try on your products results page then run this check again to see if you get any more vulnerabilities. If you do please post back with the info for them.
