Description#
User input is being directly included in SQL queries without using parameterized queries or proper sanitization. This allows attackers to manipulate the SQL statement by injecting malicious code.
Impact#
If exploited, an attacker could gain unauthorized access to, modify, or delete data in the database. This may lead to data breaches, loss of data integrity, or even complete compromise of the application’s backend database.
