What it is

⚠️ A sneaky SQL injection hides in cposts.php, using the cid parameter to turn a simple query into a potential data heist! 😱 This is like a restaurant that takes orders without checking the customer's ID—anyone could walk in and change the menu or even get access to the kitchen! 🍽️ An attacker could exploit this SQL injection to manipulate the database, potentially extracting sensitive information or altering data at will. While it’s not known to be actively exploited, the risk of data exposure could be absolutely devastating for users of ED01-CMS. ⚡
