Database disclosure via Tag deletion SQL injection
Published Oct 19, 2022 · Updated Sep 17, 2025
SQL injection in OpenCATS 0.9.6 allows remote authenticated users to read database data through the Tag deletion function. The public references identify the tag_id request variable as the injection point but do not disclose how the deletion query handles it. A low-privileged account and network access to the Tag deletion action are required, and the published impact is limited to database confidentiality.
