What it is

⚠️ A single SQL command could turn a basic user into a power player in AxiomSL! This vulnerability lets attackers access data, escalate privileges, and even delete files with ease. 🔥 Think of it like a restaurant where anyone with a reservation can suddenly walk into the kitchen and change the menu, access sensitive ingredients, or even boot everyone out without a second thought! An attacker could access sensitive data from other users, escalate their privileges, cause a complete Denial of Service, or read, write, and delete files on the server. This means your carefully prepared data could be tampered with or erased, causing chaos and disruption for everyone using the application!
