Comment (by dglingren):

 If you pursue this issue, consider a closer look at
 "sanitize_sql_orderby".

 Unlike the other WordPress "sanitize" functions, it doesn't actually
 modify the parameter passed to it. It tests the incoming value and, if it
 passes, returns the incoming value unchanged.

 Also, the testing has some issues. For example, it accepts "orderby=ASC"
 as a valid ORDER BY clause. The [gallery] shortcode will discard this
 value, but other plugins that rely on this function might have more
 serious issues.
