Executive brief
A security vulnerability exists in the Online Art Gallery Shop Project, a web application used for managing art sales. An attacker can exploit this flaw to gain unauthorized access to the underlying database without needing a username or password. This could lead to the theft of sensitive customer information, modification of gallery data, or disruption of the website's operations.
Technical details
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in projectworlds Online Art Gallery Shop Project V1.0 within the '/admin/adminHome.php' component. The root cause is the improper neutralization of the 'social_linked' POST parameter before it is used in a SQL query. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted HTTP requests to perform boolean-based blind, error-based, or time-based blind SQL injection. Successful exploitation allows for unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, and potential system compromise. Public proof-of-concept (PoC) exploits using sqlmap have been disclosed.
