Subject: Re: WordPress Search Function SQL-Injection
This looks like the bug described here: http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3722
"DB error when sanitized search string results in empty query" (Filed January 31)
According to that page:
> I guess it's also worth mentioning that commas

> that once the commas are gone WordPress attempts

>

The same error results from searching for just a space. In either case, adding other characters to the field results in the expected query. It doesn't look like injection would be possible.
