Title: PHPNuke Downloads Module SQL Injection Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

PHPNuke is a web-based content management system (CMS) written in PHP.

PHPNuke is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability. The application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'Downloads' module before using it in an SQL query.

This vulnerability 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.
