⚠️ A sneaky SQL injection is hiding in Dolibarr's admin menu! Remote attackers can exploit the `menuId` parameter to run arbitrary SQL commands. 🔥 Think of it like a restaurant where the chef takes orders without verifying them — a customer could request extra ingredients that aren't even on the menu, causing chaos in the kitchen! If exploited, an attacker could manipulate the database, allowing them to read, modify, or even delete sensitive data. This could lead to a total compromise of the system, with devastating consequences for business operations and data integrity.
