Technical details

The vulnerability exists in exammanger.php where the subject POST parameter is concatenated directly into a SQL WHERE clause without escaping, validation, or parameterization in the MySQLDB::topicslist function. The endpoint requires no authentication and returns query results in-band via the HTTP response, allowing an attacker to craft UNION-based SQL injection payloads to extract arbitrary database tables. A fix has not yet been applied.
