Details

Saurus CMS Community Edition since commit d886e5b0 (2010-04-23) is vulnerable to a SQL Injection vulnerability in the prepareSearchQuery() method in FulltextSearch.class.php. The application directly concatenates user-supplied input ($search_word) into SQL queries without sanitization, allowing attackers to manipulate the SQL logic and potentially extract sensitive information or escalate their privileges.

Severity
