Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in SQL-Ledger, which can potentially be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions and to manipulate data, and by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the file parameter within the text editor is not properly sanitised before being used to access files. This can be exploited to access arbitrary files via specially crafted input that results in a directory traversal sequence and may allow execution of arbitrary code.

2) An unspecified error related to custom functions can potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code, to overwrite certain files in a user's directory, or to bypass authentication.

Successful exploitation to execute arbitrary code with vulnerability #1 and #2 requires a valid user account.

Solution:
Update to version 2.6.25, which reportedly fixes vulnerability #2.

Grant only trusted users access to affected systems.
