Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Geocoder versions prior to 1.6.1
Description
The issue allows Boolean-based SQL injection when the
within bounding box function is used with untrusted sw lat, sw lng, ne lat, or ne lng data. This can occur in the sql.rb file of the Geocoder software.Recommendations
For Geocoder versions prior to 1.6.1, update to version 1.6.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider validating and sanitizing the
sw lat, sw lng, ne lat, and ne lng parameters to prevent SQL injection attacks. Restrict access to the within bounding box function until the update is applied.Exploit
