Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TCExam versions prior to 11.3.008

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users with level 5 or greater permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands. This can be achieved via the subject module id parameter to (1) "tce edit answer.php" or (2) "tce edit question.php" API endpoints.

Recommendations For versions prior to 11.3.008, update to version 11.3.008 or later to resolve the issue.
