What they could let someone do.

What could happen

  • Database injection

    Someone could read or change what is in the site's database: customer details, orders, password records, or a new administrator account.

    How: The software builds its questions to the database out of what visitors type, so carefully written input changes the question itself.

  • Information leak

    It could give away information that should stay private, such as user details, file locations or settings, which makes other attacks easier.

    How: The software shows, sends or logs more than it should.

  • Missing checks

    Someone could do things only an administrator should: change settings, see private data, or give themselves more rights.

    How: Part of the software forgets to check who is asking before it does what was asked.
