This can be exploited to extract sensitive data from the backend database. The CVSS v3.1 score is 7.2, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, high privileges required, no user interaction, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
An attacker with accounting manager or admin access can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the database. This can result in unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, and potential disruption of service.
