This one is so blatantly bogus, I hesitate to even comment on it for
fear of giving it legitimacy.

It might be possible to use $order to do remote SQL injection, but local
file exposure? I don't see it. $order isn't used in any include,
require, or other method that would expose it to the vulnerability claimed.

Additionally, as a legitimate exploit for this application, it is
possible to by pass the admin authentication by accessing the included
contest.php in the admin folder directly (not using the index.php).

Granted this application is almost 3 years old, and could very easily be
argued that it is a dead and unsupported.
