Remote code execution via SQL and file upload
Published Mar 6, 2026 · Updated Mar 6, 2026
SQL injection and unrestricted file upload in Alive Parish 2.0.4 allow remote attackers to execute SQL and upload executable files. The parish/search endpoint processes the key parameter as SQL, while person/photo/1 accepts People[raw_photo] and stores it under images/uploaded. No authentication or user interaction is required; successful abuse permits database access or execution of an uploaded server-side file.
