Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Advanced Comment System version 1.0

Description The issue arises from insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in SQL queries, specifically allowing remote attackers to execute SQL injection attacks via the "page" parameter in a URL. The product is discontinued.

Recommendations For Advanced Comment System version 1.0, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the admin.php file until a resolution can be determined, and avoid using the page parameter in URLs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
