Database access via concatenated author identifier
Published May 8, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2025
SQL injection in SLiMS 9 Bulian 9.6.1 allows remote authenticated users to read or alter database data through authorID. The endpoint concatenates the biblio_id and authorID GET parameters directly into a join query without validation, escaping, or parameter binding. Access to the administrative endpoint requires an authenticated administrator session, and crafted authorID values support boolean-based, time-based, and UNION-query data access or modification.
