A SQL Injection in the custom filter query component in Genesys intelligent Workload Distribution (IWD) 9.0.017.07 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries via the value attribute, with which all data in the database can be extracted and OS command execution is possible depending on the permissions and/or database engine.
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.
