Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVE-2024-5725
Summary
Centreon initCurveList SQL Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on Centreon's affected installations. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the initCurveList function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to construct SQL queries. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the Apache user. Was ZDI-CAN-22683. This issue affects centreon/centreon versions through 22.04.22, 22.10.0-beta1 through 22.10.21, 23.04.0 through 23.04.16, 23.10.0 through 23.10.11, and 24.04.0.

CWE-89 - SQL Injection
Structured Query Language (SQL) injection attacks are one of the most common types of vulnerabilities. They exploit weaknesses in vulnerable applications to gain unauthorized access to backend databases. This often occurs when an attacker enters unexpected SQL syntax in an input field. The resulting SQL statement behaves in the background in an unintended manner, which allows the possibility of unauthorized data retrieval, data modification, execution of database administration operations, and execution of commands on the operating system.
