If someone enters \ or ' into the search form without any additional characters following, it'll immediately result in an SQL error. This was first broken in 2.6.6 but I've just noticed it's still around in the latest CVS as well. It is also reproducable for this installation here at fudforum.org.

Error message goes like:
Quote:

Fatal error: SQL Error has occurred, please contact the administrator of the forum and have them review the forum's SQL query log in /xxx/xxx/xxx/forum/index.php on line 49

Interesting is, that "\ some more" and "' some more" works without problem. The search only can't handle these characters alone.

I've did some more testing and have to extend my bug report:

It seems that error will occur whenever someone attempts to perform a search with a single printable character as search term.
