Technical details

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in Open ISES Tickets versions prior to 3.44.2 within the 'tables.php' file. The application fails to sanitize the 'tablename', 'indexname', and 'sortby' POST parameters before concatenating them into table and column identifiers for dynamic SELECT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements. An authenticated attacker with network access can exploit this to alter query semantics, enabling unauthorized reading, modification, or deletion of database contents. The issue is addressed in version 3.44.2 by implementing proper input validation and sanitization.
