Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Symphony CMS versions prior to 2.2.4

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users with Author permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the filter parameter to (1) "symphony/publish/comments" or (2) "symphony/publish/images" API endpoints. This can be leveraged to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via error messages.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.2.4, update to version 2.2.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the filter parameter in the affected API endpoints until a patch is available.
