info:
  name: phpMyFAQ <= 4.1.1 - SQL Injection
  author: DhiyaneshDk
  severity: critical
  description: |
    phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in BuiltinCaptcha::garbageCollector() and BuiltinCaptcha::saveCaptcha() methods that interpolate unsanitized User-Agent headers into DELETE and INSERT queries. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit the public GET /api/captcha endpoint by crafting malicious User-Agent headers to perform time-based blind SQL injection, extracting sensitive data including user credentials, admin tokens, and SMTP credentials from the database.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can extract sensitive data including user credentials, admin tokens, and SMTP credentials from the database.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade phpMyFAQ to version 4.1.2 or later.
