Patch info
**************
A patched version of the vulnerable file can be found at, http://www.digitalparadox.org/memberlist.txt
Just replace /uploads/sources/memberlist.php with this, and it will be fixed.

A simple patch can be,

In /uploads/sources/memberlist.php on Line 274 add this code
[CODE BEGINS]

if (!is_numeric($this->first)) {
$this->first = "0";
}

[CODE ENDS]

So it should finally look like,
[CODE BEGINS]

$this->output .= $this->html->Page_header( array( "SHOW_PAGES" => $links) );

//-----------------------------
// START THE LISTING
//-----------------------------
if (!is_numeric($this->first)) {
$this->first = "0";
}

$DB->query("SELECT m.name, m.id, m.posts, m.joined, m.mgroup, m.email,m.title, m.hide_email, m.location, m.aim_name,
m.icq_number,
me.photo_location, me.photo_type, me.photo_dimensions

[CODE ENDS]
