Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed via the track parameter to modulesCampaignsTracker.php and modulesCampaignsutils.php, the default_currency_name parameter to modulesConfiguratorcontroller.php and modulesCurrenciesCurrency.php, the duplicate parameter to modulesContactsShowDuplicates.php, the mergecur parameter to modulesCurrenciesindex.php and modulesOpportunitiesOpportunity.php, and the load_signed_id parameter to modulesDocumentsDocument.php. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.
