Discussion

Family Connections Multiple Input Validation Vulnerabilities

Family Connections is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities, including a local file-include issue, an arbitrary-file-upload issue, and multiple SQL-injection issues. These issues occur because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

Exploiting these issues may allow an unauthorized user to view files and execute local scripts, execute arbitrary script code, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Versions prior to Family Connections 2.2 are vulnerable.
