Well, we're not quite trusting the RP proxy to provide true values; only
true values within the constraints.

    Josh> Limited, a not-for-profit company which is registered in
    Josh> England under No. 2881024 and whose Registered Office is at
    Josh> Lumen House, Library Avenue, Harwell Oxford, Didcot,
    Josh> Oxfordshire. OX11 0SG. VAT No. 614944238

we were planning on writing the code to avoid the SQL injection attack,
although yes it would be possible to support that attack if we're not
careful with the SQL.

Of somewhat more concern is managing to avoid a Freeradius unlang xlat
attack or similar.
Freeradius  sometimes trusts content read from SQL more than you might
like.

I was planning to review our approach and make sure we adequately
restrict the inputs and adequately escape.
