Multiple improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command vulnerabilities in FortiPortal 6.0.0 through 6.0.4, 5.3.0 through 5.3.5, 5.2.0 through 5.2.5, and 4.2.2 and earlier may allow an attacker with regular user's privileges to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying SQL database via specifically crafted HTTP requests.
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.
