Title: A-FAQ Multiple SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

A-FAQ is a question-and-answer database application written in ASP.

A-FAQ is prone to multiple SQL-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'faqid' parameter of 'faqDspItem.asp' and the 'catcode' parameter of 'faqDsp.asp' before using it in an SQL query.

Exploiting these vulnerabilities could permit remote attackers to pass malicious input to database queries, resulting in the modification of query logic or other attacks.

A successful exploit could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

A-FAQ 1.0 and earlier versions are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Affected Products:

  • Alan Ward A-FAQ 1.0.0
