CVE-2014-6045

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.2)—💥 Exploit

SQL injection vulnerability in phpMyFAQ before 2.8.13 allows remote authenticated users with certain permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands via vectors involving the restore function.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
