This is something geeklog should protect against. Either escape the data, or
validate it prior to injecting it into SQL. If there are plans to do this in a
future version that's fine, but I don't think it's reasonable for geeklog to
expect users to provide it with valid data.
The other thing I would suggest is that either we always use POST methods, or
encrypt and sign the arguments generated in a GET method to avoid either
replaying or injecting bad data to geeklog. Nevertheless, all data should be
validated/sanitized prior to use.
