Technical details
Anyquery in 'server' mode (MySQL-compatible) blindly proxies SQL commands to an underlying SQLite engine without restricting administrative commands. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use the 'ATTACH DATABASE' command to create or overwrite files at arbitrary paths on the host filesystem. By injecting malicious payloads into these files (such as cron jobs or PHP shells), an attacker can achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE). The vulnerability is rooted in missing authorization and unrestricted access to dangerous SQLite functions. Users should update to version 0.4.5 or later where these functions are restricted in server mode.
