Technical details

The vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw in the get_arrchildid() function within application/admin/controller/category.class.php. The parentid parameter is concatenated directly into a FIND_IN_SET() SQL clause without proper sanitization or parameterized queries. An authenticated administrator can exploit this via boolean-based blind SQL injection to execute arbitrary queries against the database. The vulnerability requires admin authentication, but allows full database compromise once authenticated.
