Until an official fix is available, restrict access to authenticated administrator accounts and validate or sanitize input parameters, especially the table_name parameter, to prevent injection. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official mitigations.
Description
Saurus CMS Community Edition contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the admin/db_data.php file at line 509. Authenticated administrators can exploit this flaw by supplying unsanitized input to the table_name parameter, allowing arbitrary SQL injection in a SHOW COLUMNS FROM statement. This enables attackers to enumerate the full database schema, access system tables like information_schema, and potentially extract credential data through chained injection points. The vulnerability has a high severity score of 8.6 (CVSS 4.0).
