foobla Suggestions for Joomla "idea_id" SQL Injection Vulnerability

Description:
Chip D3 Bi0s has reported a vulnerability in foobla Suggestions for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "idea_id" parameter to index.php (if "option" is set to "com_foobla_suggestions" and "controller" to "comment") is not properly sanitised before being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.5.11. Other versions may also be affected.

Source: http://secunia.com/advisories/36767/

Solution: upgrade to latest version (1.5.0.1_build20090922)

See how to get newer version here.

I need something that will do two things:
1. Take your random RSS and submit daily updates to Twitter, FB, LinkedIn, etc. [or as many as are available along that line]; and
2. To manually enter an update and hit send to tweet, update FB, etc.

This is an interesting question from our client in Owings Maryland, United States.

After a few minutes of confusing, I found myself a good-enough solution. Here is outline:

1. Use foobla Twitter for manually update to Twitter http://foob.la/obTwitter
2. Use foobla RSS for making a random RSS Feed http://foob.la/obRSS
3. Use Ping.FM Feeds service to add the random feed to Ping.FM.
4. Add Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn or whatever on Ping.FM.

Ping.fm is a simple and FREE service that makes updating your social networks a snap!
