Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection via the sqltab_fetch_clients_cb function. An attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands by supplying a crafted domain name during a reverse DNS lookup, which is then passed unescaped into SQL queries. This is only exploitable if the "UseReverseDNS on" configuration is enabled.
