Subject: SQL injection in Wordpress plugin Buddypress

Hi,

I would like disclosure SQL injection vulnerability if Buddypress plugin affecting last versions. This issue was reported to developers and resolved in 1.5.5 version. So, I suggest all having this plugin in their blogs update to last version, if you haven't done it yet. Example of POST message with sql injection is below.

POST /wp-load.php HTTP/1.1

Host: example.com
Accept: */*
