## Technical details

FUXA versions up to 1.1.12 are vulnerable to SQL injection via the "id" parameter in HTTP POST requests with JSON-formatted bodies. The vulnerability exists because user-supplied input is not properly sanitized before being incorporated into SQL queries. An attacker with network access can craft malicious SQL payloads (such as time-based or data exfiltration queries) to extract data from the SQLite database without authentication. The attack is network-accessible and requires no user interaction. Patches are available in versions after 1.1.12.
