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.
Read about it here - Server side request forgery
Someone could make your server fetch addresses for them, reaching services that are meant to be private.
How: The software fetches an address it was sent without checking where it points.
- Cross-site scripting
Someone could make your pages run their own script in visitors' browsers, to steal logins, show a fake payment form or send people to a scam site.
How: The software puts text it was sent back onto a page without making it safe first, so a script hidden in a link, form or comment runs as if it were part of your site.
