CWE ids for CVE-2016-7919
-
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.Assigned by:
- 134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0 (Secondary)
- nvd@nist.gov (Primary)
-
The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.Assigned by: nvd@nist.gov (Primary)
