– Privilege Escalation : Exploiting the vulnerability may allow attackers to escalate privileges and gain administrative access to the database or application.
– Web Shell Installation : Attackers could potentially install web shells to maintain persistent access to the affected system.

– Possible Outcomes of Exploitation :
– Unauthorized access to sensitive data.
– Compromise of user accounts and credentials.
– Corruption or deletion of database records.
– Complete system takeover if administrative privileges are gained.
– Potential for further attacks on connected systems or networks.

2. Mitigation Measures:
– Use prepared statements and parameterized queries.
– Validate and sanitize all user inputs.
– Implement web application firewalls (WAF).
– Regularly update and patch applications and dependencies.
– Conduct security code reviews and vulnerability assessments.
– Limit database user privileges to the minimum necessary.
– Monitor and log database queries for suspicious activity.
– Employ security measures like Content Security Policy (CSP) to mitigate risks.
