Slims · Slims · CVE-2023-48893
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
SLiMS versions prior to 9.6.2
**Description**
The issue allows for SQL injection, potentially enabling a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information and execute arbitrary code. This can be achieved by crafting a script to the date parameter in the staff act.php file, specifically via the `startDate` or `untilDate` parameters.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 9.6.2, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue to prevent SQL injection attacks.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the staff act.php file or limiting the input for the `startDate` and `untilDate` parameters until a patch is available.
