A vulnerability was found in phpWebThings 1.4. It has been classified as critical. Affected is some unknown processing of the file download.php. The manipulation of the argument sel_avatar
with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-89. 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
