CVE-2014-125037

Database read or modification via interpolated injury names

Published Jan 2, 2023 · Updated Aug 6, 2024

SQL injection in License To Kill allows local users to execute SQL statements by entering a crafted injury name in the command-line application. The Injury.find_by_name and Injury#save methods interpolate the name into SELECT and INSERT query strings instead of binding it as data. Access to the local interactive program is required; successful injection can read or alter the application's SQLite injury records.
