Overview

craftcms/cms is a content management system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection via the actionSearch process in ElementSearchController. An attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands and extract database contents by injecting malicious input into criteria[where], criteria[orderBy], or other query properties. This is only exploitable if the attacker is an authenticated control panel user.
