SweetRice contains a flaw that may allow an attacker to carry out an SQL injection attack. The issue is due to the 'index.php' script not properly sanitizing user-supplied input to the 'file_name' parameter (when "action" is set to "attachment"), to the 'post' parameter (when "action" is set to "show_comment") and to the 'sys-name' parameter (when "action" is set to "view"). This may allow an attacker to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, allowing for the manipulation or disclosure of arbitrary data.
