CVE-2026-72550
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
An SQL injection vulnerability in Friendica through the 2026.08-dev branch allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL statements via the photo-view order parameter. The parameter is concatenated unescaped into a SHOW COLUMNS query via a bare PDO::query() call, enabling stacked statement injection. An unauthenticated attacker can read, modify, or delete the entire database.

El parámetro se concatena sin escapar en una consulta SHOW COLUMNS a través de una llamada directa a PDO::query(), lo que permite la inyección de sentencias apiladas. Un atacante no autenticado puede leer, modificar o eliminar la totalidad de la base de datos."
