CVE-2023-22268Network attack vector

Information disclosure via unvalidated SQL query input

Published Nov 17, 2023 · Updated Sep 4, 2024

SQL injection in Adobe RoboHelp Server 11.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to disclose application data over the network. The getRHSGroupsForRoles method inserts a user-supplied string into constructed SQL queries without proper validation. Low-privileged authentication is required; exploitation needs no user interaction and provides information disclosure without data changes or interruption.
