Unauthenticated admin access via crafted login username
Published May 19, 2022 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
SQL injection in the DynWEB admin login before 4.2 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication with a crafted username. The backend login script incorporates the username into an SQL query without validation or sanitization, allowing an injected comment to bypass the password check. No account is required; exploitation grants administrative access and permits database access, content changes, and file uploads.
