phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq is vulnerable to SQL Injection. The vulnerability is caused due to improper escaping of the email address within News.php. This allows authenticated users with appropriate privileges to execute malicious SQL queries, potentially leading to data exfiltration, account takeover, and even Remote Code Execution (RCE).
