Authenticated SQL injection via stored section ordering
Published Mar 15, 2026 · Updated Mar 15, 2026
SQL injection in phpIPAM 1.7.0 through 1.7.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute constrained SQL via section ordering. The Section Handler stores subnetOrdering through app/admin/sections/edit-result.php, and fetch_section_subnets later concatenates its first comma-delimited value into an ORDER BY expression. Administrative permission to edit a section is required; the 16-character field and ORDER BY context limit practical exploitation chiefly to blind timing or error effects.
