Authenticated code execution via concatenated rank parameters
Published Mar 16, 2023 · Updated Feb 26, 2025
SQL injection in DedeCMS 5.7.106 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code through rank_* values sent to group_store.php. The uprank action concatenates each POST value whose key contains rank_ directly into an UPDATE statement passed to mysqli_query. Access to the administrative backend is required, and a crafted value produces time-based blind injection with code-execution impact.
