|---|---|
| 74120 | Apache HTTP Server mod_authnz_external mysql/mysql-auth.pl user Field SQL Inj... The mod_authnz_external module for Apache HTTP Server contains a flaw that may allow an attacker to carry out an SQL injection attack. The issue is due to the 'mysql/mysql-auth.pl' script not properly sanitizing user-supplied input to the 'user' field. This may allow an attacker to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, allowing for the manipulation or disclosure of arbitrary data. |
