CVE-2022-45536Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Database disclosure via unsanitized comment identifier

Published Nov 22, 2022 · Updated Apr 29, 2025

SQL injection in AeroCMS 0.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to read database information through the administrative comments page. The post_comments.php handler incorporates the id parameter into a database query without neutralizing SQL syntax, allowing crafted input to alter the query. Access requires high application privileges and network reachability to the administrative interface; the documented consequence is database confidentiality loss.
