Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to inject arbitrary SQL commands.

The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command in BSim search filter types when processing XML protocol messages received over the BSim network query protocol. A remote user can send specially crafted filter values to inject arbitrary SQL commands.

Multiple filter types concatenate user-supplied values directly into SQL queries without escaping or parameterization, while the affected values originate from network XML messages.
