eDirectory All Versions SQL Injection Authentication Bypass

Vulnerability Description

eDirectory contains multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities that allow unauthenticated attackers to bypass administrator authentication and disclose sensitive files by injecting SQL code into parameters. Attackers can exploit the key parameter in the login endpoint with union-based SQL injection to authenticate as administrator, then leverage authenticated file disclosure vulnerabilities in language_file.php to read arbitrary PHP files from the server.
