queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.  The  following
is the vulnerable code:

ttvideoController.php (line 40):

function video() {
    $cid = JRequest::getVar('cid', null, 'default');
    

ttvideo.php (line 188):

function getVideo($id) {
    $db = $this->getDBO();
    $db->setQuery("SELECT * from #__ttvideo WHERE id=$id");
    $video = $db->loadObject(); 
    if ($video === null)
      JError::raiseError(500, 'Video with ID: '.$id.' not found.');
    return $video;
}
