Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability is classified as SQL Injection (CWE-89), which allows attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands against the database. An attacker using SQL injection may use arguments to construct queries without proper sanitization. The DBVisitor.dll is exposed through SOAP interfaces, and the exposed functions are vulnerable to SOAP injection. This may allow unexpected SQL action and access to records in the table of the software database or execution of arbitrary code. Affected products include: Advantech Advantech Webaccess.

Attack Technique

SQL injection exploits the way applications construct database queries by mixing user input directly into SQL statements.

Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
