Orange Human Resource Management
OrangeHRM Inc.
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 sortField parameter to (1) viewCustomers, (2) viewPayGrades, or (3) viewSystemUsers in symfony/web/index.php/admin/, as demonstrated using cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
