SQL injection vulnerability in phpgwapi/js/dhtmlxtree/samples/with_db/loaddetails.php in EGroupware Enterprise Line (EPL) before 11.1.20110804-1 and EGroupware Community Edition before 1.8.001.20110805 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the id parameter.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
