CVE-2024-51482Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Database compromise via unparameterized tag lookup

Published Oct 31, 2024 · Updated Nov 8, 2024

SQL injection in ZoneMinder 1.37.0 through 1.37.64 allows remote authenticated users to read or alter database data via a crafted tag ID. The removetag branch in web/ajax/event.php inserts the tid request value directly into an Events_Tags SELECT statement instead of binding it as a parameter. Low-privileged access to the web event-tag removal action is required; exploitation can disclose or modify database data or interrupt service.
