Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) before 1.1.15 and 2.x before 2.0.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via vectors involving a (1) HTML entity or (2) display name. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
