[pLog-svn] Lifetype 1.2.8 ...

There is no test case for both of them. 

For 6435, you can try to revert the code first, then try to search your
article category with a keyword that you don't have, for example 'abc'.

Without the fix, when you search your article category in admin panel, it
will show other blog owners's article category with search term 'abc'. See
the search sql below:

Select *  from article_categories where blog_id=1 and name LIKE '%abc%' OR
description LIKE '%abc%'   v.s

Select *  from article_categories where blog_id=1 and (name LIKE '%abc%' OR
description LIKE '%abc%' ) 

Do you see the different? So, I say it is a more serious bug. Because it can
show other article categories...

For 6436 & 6437, Just fix the XSS you reported in svn.
