What is CVE-2024-24572?
CVE-2024-24572 is a medium-severity SQL injection vulnerability in WillyXJ facileManager, published on 31 Jan 2024. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.
Official description
facileManager is a modular suite of web apps built with the sysadmin in mind. In versions 4.5.0 and earlier, the $_REQUEST global array was unsafely called inside an extract() function in admin-logs.php. The PHP file fm-init.php prevents arbitrary manipulation of $_SESSION via the GET/POST parameters. However, it does not prevent manipulation of any other sensitive variables such as $search_sql. Knowing this, an authenticated user with privileges to view site logs can manipulate the search_sql variable by appending a GET parameter search_sql in the URL. The information above means that the checks and SQL injection prevention attempts were rendered unusable.
Weakness: CWE-89
