SQL injection in Brocade SANnav before 2.2.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL through Zone Management endpoints. Broadcom identifies multiple affected endpoints but does not disclose which parameters reach improperly constructed database queries. Unauthenticated network access is sufficient, and injected statements execute with the application's database privileges.
