For all that cannot set REGISTER_GLOBALS to OFF, I've created this HTACCESS that may block hacking via RFI (Remote File Injection).
HTACCESS modification requires Apache Rewrite Engine set to ENABLED to work and is not needed for those who have REGISTER_GLOBALS set to OFF.
Here is the part to insert in your HTACCESS in the root of your site:

#RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(phpbb_root_path|album_root_path|module_root_path|mx_root_path|upi2db_file_path).*$
# LESS STRICT CONDITION
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(phpbb_root_path=|album_root_path=|module_root_path=|mx_root_path=|upi2db_file_path=).*$

This will redirect all hacking attempts using the most common known vars (these should be the only used in XS, if you install other mods, you may want to add even other vars) to localhost of the hacker.
I left commented the opportunity to generate an error that will be logged by XS errors function which I attach here the new file.
So here attached you will find:
- Premodified standard XS HTACCESS
- New ERRORS.PHP file (replace the old with this one)
The file errors.php it's indipendent from HTACCESS, so you should apply this patch even if you are not modifying your HTACCESS
